>(excluding car costs etc.)
That's a very significant piece of the emissions footprint of a car. I've seen numbers that say as much as 30% of the emissions resulting from a car come from the car's construction and distribution.
- Retric 16y agoI have seen numbers that suggest it costs about as much to keep our road system maintained as the fuel costs to drive on it. Basically add up the cost of bridge / road matience, deicing, DMV, highway police, truck weigh stations, drivers ed, and new roads and you find our highway system is heavily subsidized.
- corin_ 16y agoWhile it's true that all that costs money and creates CO2, as do the cars themselves (as lukeschlather commented), I suspect that Google aren't taking into account the cost and the CO2 of the infrastructure of the internet, that actually allows people to search through them.
