The UK road tax is based on the amount of Co2 emmissions.
Data on other pollutants NoX & particulates, noise, radiator coolant, catalictic platinum are less available.
Particulates kill 1,000s in the UK each year, according to chief scientific advisor. It is almost worth mining the dust at some traffic unctions for platinum.
Generally diesels, bio or fossil, cause more more dangerous particulates than petrol.
Infernal combustion cars used on short journeys, or queing traffic, or racing between trafic jams, or badly mainained cause more pollution. And the bigger & heavier cars cause more pollution still, not just in running, but manufacture maintenance & disposal.
electric vehicles by contrast are zero emmision in use, fully recyclable, and refueld at home or work from renewable energy sources.
the Tesla, build by Lotus Norfolk UK, can do 0-60 in 4 second, and 250 miles per charge www.teslamotors.com.
or the Phoenix SUT that can be recharged in 10 minutes & batteries will last 20 years.
The car industry & media should be held accountable for all the death & disease caused by not providing us with information & options to have electric motors.

Austin almost falls off the left edge of the spectrum, however. heavily, no person might ever say that each little thing is suited in Texas and coal plant life are one problem we've that i might choose to be certain. The so-referred to as "sparkling" coal plant life that Gov. Perry needs are a shaggy dog tale, surprisingly as quickly as we've plenty organic gasoline to enhance (the Barnett Shale is nowhere close to completely developed) and the wind farms in West Texas are nonetheless starting to be all the time. of path, we've the area in Texas for nuclear plant life and the potential to coach community workers to create jobs in places like Pecos. That being mentioned...an editorial like this is probably meant to make Texans experience sorry for polluting, even though it fails. Our pollution is *no longer something* whilst in comparison with Mexico or China, so in case you choose to purpose and control human beings via way of guilt go try someplace else. kthxbai

What do you want to know? In the UK the amount of road tax you pay is based on emission levels.

For UK data you can go here:
http://www.vcacarfueldata.org.uk/search/runningCostSearch.asp
Select 'All' as the manufacturer and click Search.
Then click on the CO2 emissions column to sort them by CO2 emissions.
