Systems and methods that provide for fuel usage monitoring, carbon footprint determination, and solutions for reducing vehicular carbon footprint are disclosed herein. One embodiment of a system includes a processor and memory, the processor being configured to execute instructions stored in memory to perform a method of receiving a selection of a specific vehicle from a number of vehicles in a fleet for use by a driver; receiving via a computer network, a number of vehicle performance metrics for a trip performed by the driver in the specific vehicle; and determining a carbon footprint value for the driver performing the trip based at least on chemical composition of a fuel type, and a fuel consumption performance metric for the specific vehicle. Also, the system provides a method of selecting, one or more actions to reduce the carbon footprint value of the driver, and selectively communicating the selected actions to a driver's computing device.
