Quote: "Around 17% of emissions are accounted for by the combustion of fuel for the generation of electricity. A small percentage of emissions come from natural and anthropogenic biological sources, with approximately 6.3% derived from agriculturally produced methane and nitrous oxide."

So, I guess it is between 15% and 18%.

Not cars but the gas they emit which is CO2, Carbon Dioxide. I would say that Carbon Dioxide is responsbile for about 18% of Global warming.

CO2 as the cause of global warming is still only an unproven theory. In fact, for many years after about 1947 CO2 emissions increased, but the overall global temperature dropped.

There is no such thing as Global Warming ! But if there were, cars would contribute a minimal amount. 3 % or less.
