Transport in the
European Union
The chart shows CO2
emissions per passenger kilometer for various methods of transport in the
European Union while the pie chart shows European Union spending on transport. Flying
by air produces by far the greatest CO2 emissions, approximately three times as
much as passenger cars which are the next largest producers!
Very little is spent by the EU on air travel while roads make up more than half
of the EU transport budget.Trains produce about three times less CO2 emissions per passenger kilometer than
passenger cars and eight times less than air travel. Nearly a third of EU
transport funds are spent on railways.
Ships are a clean form of transport and produce about the same amount of CO2 per passenger kilometer as trains do. However, only 2 percent of EU funds are spent on ports. A further one percent is spent on inland waterways.
Coaches are the cleanest form of transport. Emissions of CO2 per passenger kilometers from coaches are half those of buses. Buses emit less than half as much CO2 per passenger kilometer as cars. The European Union spends 10 percent of its transport budget on public transport, such as buses and coaches.
