This approach tries to calculate the true impact of the transportation by looking at the carbondioxide emission. The lifecycle values for each product incorporate already the impact of distribution for France. Thus we need to adjust this impact for other countries by subtracting the impact for France and adding the other country.

If the detailed lifecycle data is available, we can just divide the distribution fraction by the size of France and multiply with the size of the other country. This implies that the same product will have a lower lifecycle value in, for example Belgium, than in France. For very small territories the distribution fraction will be reduced to zero.

Drawback of this approach is that the distribution part of the lifecycle is not emphasised. But then it is only a small part if the total lifecycle value.
