The table below shows carbon dioxide emissions from transport in three European countries in 1994 and 2004.

The table below shows carbon dioxide emissions from transport in three European countries in 1994 and 2004.
#carbon #dioxide #emissions #transport #three #european #countries
The given table provides an overview of carbon dioxide
emissions
 from four main
transport
sources
 (namely,
road
transport
, railways, civil aviation and shipping) in the United
Kingdom
,
France
 and
Germany
 in 1994 and 2004.
Germany
,
although
 having higher
emissions
 than either the United
Kingdom
 or
France
 , saw the amount decrease slightly from 47.2 to 46.7
million
tonnes
.
By comparison
,
France
 recorded an increase of four
million
tonnes
 from 34.7
million
 in 1994,
while
 the United
Kingdom
 had a smaller growth, 2.5
million
tonnes
 over the same period. In all
three
 countries,
road
transport
 was responsible for the majority of
emissions
. In the United
Kingdom
,
road
transport
 produced
emissions
 of up to 32.6
million
tonnes
 in 2004, 2
million
 more than ten years earlier,
while
 the other
three
transport
sources
 did not show any remarkable growth. A similar pattern was seen in
France
, where
road
transport
 added 3.6
million
tonnes
 to the total
emissions
 within ten years.
Germany
,
by contrast
, was the only country of the
three
 to experience a drop in
road
transport
emissions
. The other
three
transport
sources
 had a lower emission volume as well, except civil aviation, with the amount rising to 1.2
million
. As shown in the table, both the UK and
France
 failed to reduce carbon dioxide
emissions
 from
transport
sources
 during the period 1994 to 2004,
in contrast
 to the decrease in
Germany
.
Road
transport
 continued to account for the biggest source of
emissions
.
