1. A system for displaying carbon savings to a user, the system comprising:
one or more carbon savings input devices, the one or more carbon savings input devices including at least one of a flight management system configured to provide flight management system data, a fuel system configured to provide fuel system data, an air data system configured to provide air data system data, and an engine control system configured to provide engine control system data;
one or more user interface devices including one or more displays; and
one or more controllers including one or more processors configured to execute a set of program instructions stored in a memory, the set of program instructions configured to cause the one or more processors to:
receive one or more carbon savings inputs from the one or more carbon savings input devices;
receive data from one or more databases, the received data selected from a group including reference data, comparison data, or fuel tabular data;
calculate a carbon savings value based on the received one or more carbon savings inputs and the received data; and
generate one or more control signals configured to cause the one or more displays of the one or more user interface devices to display the calculated carbon savings value to the user.
