An analysis of emissions and carbon footprints for the various types of vehicle propulsion

Plans, predictions, and strategies to decrease emissions from vehicles are now being implemented as a direct result of anti-pollution legislation, which is currently in full swing. Countries that have achieved a high level of industrialization have enacted a variety of policies designed to encourage the production of clean (or less polluting) vehicles. These policies include the reduction of taxes as well as the imposition of penalties (such as green surcharges or even a ban on driving) on vehicles that emit high levels of pollutants that are in excess of what is considered to be acceptable levels. The public at large is coming around to the idea that human activity is responsible for the majority of climate change, as well as the emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, and this theory has a solid foundation in the scientific community. The paper aims to explore findings in the context of the disproportionately carbon footprint for different means of transportation of goods.
