Greenhouse gas emissions are expressed in Carbon Dioxide equivalents (C02e) per passenger per
mile.
g CO2e = grams of Carbon Dioxide equivalents.
g CO2e/passenger per mile for the modes of transport
shown above are:
316g - Diesel Car
- 275g (Direct Emissions) - 41g (Indirect Emissions)
323g - Petrol Car - 274g (Direct Emissions) - 49g (Indirect Emissions)
The emissions shown above are the sum of both Direct Emissions (Tailpipe) and Indirect Emissions
(Well to Tank)
Source data for the different modes of transport is from the DfT and can be found on the
governmentwebsite in table ENV0701 at:
