Calculations are based on:
- Coach: 0.029 kg (0.06 lbs) CO2 / passenger and kilometre. This data is independently calculated by the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Management and is based on an average coach load.
- Car: 0.14 kg (0.3 lbs) CO2 / passenger and kilometre. This is derived from the DEFRA (Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs) CO2 emissions factor for an average petrol car which is 0.180 kg (0.39 lbs) CO2 / vehicle per km, and the average load of a car: 1.6 people / journey (DfT - Department for Transportation of the UK).
