How many pounds of co2 does a person produce per year?

How much co2 does a hummer produces in a year?

A Hummer parked in a garage emits almost zero CO2 over the course of a year. The Hummer H2 gets around 10 to 12 mpg. Assuming the typical owner drives 15,000 miles per year, that is around 1300 gallons of gas. Each gallon of gas burned results in 14 pounds of CO2. Multiplying these last two figures we get 9.5 tons of CO2 emitted per year, per Hummer, on average.

How much CO2 does a motorbike produces every km?

Doesn't the driver ( and any passengers ) in the car emit CO2 as well, so you are not comparing like with like.You must compare CO2 from Car, driver and passengers with CO2 emitted by cyclist to be more accurate.You will need to divide the CO2 for car driver and passenger by number of occupants of car to get CO2 per person per journey
