The rise in carbon dioxide emissions is of significant
importance, as carbon dioxide constitutes the largest portion of total
emissions and is considered a primary driver of climate change. Consequently,
the carbon footprint is a crucial concept for understanding and quantifying
environmental impacts. This study aims to provide an overview of the current
state of research in the academic world through a bibliometric analysis. Data
for the analysis were identified using keywords in a search process conducted
on the Web of Science online publication database. The analysis encompasses 957
articles, with the first 150 documents selected based on their relevance.
To illustrate various networks, groupings, and
connections between countries, institutions, and author keywords, WOSviewer
version 1.6.20 was utilized. The results indicate that most publications
occurred in 2023. The People's Republic of China leads in terms of the number
of publications in this research area, with over 60 scientific papers recorded.
Both "Engineering" and "Environmental Sciences Ecology"
show nearly equal resonance in the academic community. The institutional
network exhibits an isolated and fragmented pattern, characterized by few
connections. In country-specific co-authorship, seven clusters are identified,
with China holding a dominant position. Examination of author keywords reveals
that life cycle assessment, along with building energy consumption and life
cycle costing, is gaining increasing significance.
