How is this quantified?
From my lay-person’s perspective, “emissions” is a vague term that covers everything from VOC in housepaint to methane in cow farts.
- icegreentea2 5y agoIt's from here: https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/fast-facts-transportation-greenhouse-gas-emissions https://www.epa.gov/greenvehicles/fast-facts-transportation-... and https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/sources-greenhouse-gas-emissions https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/sources-greenhouse-gas-emis... Emission is intended to be broad here to capture as much impact as possible. It should be expressed in CO2 equivalent.
