"A vehicle that burns a litre to go one km is going to emit way more C02 than one that goes 25 on the same litre-- 25 times more per unit distance."
Emissions are more than just CO2 and while it's true that an SUV will emit significantly more carbon monoxide per mile than a 2-stroke scooter, a 2-stroke scooter will emit more unburned hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide. It's not an apples to apples comparison and neither side of the argument should attempt to simplify as such. On Sat, Aug 20, 2011 at 9:06 AM, S.
