This chart based on data from the UK government shows the carbon footprint associated with different types of travel as measures in grams of carbon dioxide equivalents per passenger kilometer
- 4. 2 – Transportation and the Environment | The Geography of Transport . . .
Transportation systems, from infrastructures to vehicle operations, have environmental impacts ranging from noise, the emission of pollutants to climate change
- How does transportation impact our world? - ArcGIS StoryMaps
Transportation takes energy, and currently, most vehicles burn fossil fuels and release exhaust (emissions) into the air as they move people and the things we need and use On the flip side, electric vehicles (EVs) get their energy from rechargeable batteries and do not release emissions
