This figure includes not only the direct emissions from fuel combustion but also "grey emissions" from the production of the vehicle, the provision of road infrastructure, and the extraction, transportation, and processing of crude oil.

To put this into context, let's compare it to other modes of transport. Walking or cycling are the lowest-carbon options for short to medium distances. Trains are also a particularly low-carbon way to travel and are often the best option if walking or cycling are not feasible. For example, taking a train instead of a car for medium-length distances can reduce emissions by around 80%. Electric vehicles are also a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional petrol or diesel cars, even taking into account the energy needed to produce their batteries.

If you're looking to reduce your carbon footprint, consider opting for more fuel-efficient vehicles, carpooling, or choosing alternative modes of transport like walking, cycling, or taking the train whenever possible.
