Greenhouse gas emissions from transport account for 25% of the total EU greenhouse gas emissions. In order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050, as specified in the European Green Deal, there is a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector by 90%. [^r2]

In this project, the primary objective is to explore the correlation between automobile choices and $CO_2$ emissions. This project aims to examine the impact of selecting one type of car over another on $CO_2$ emissions and its consequent effects on various aspects of life. The objective is to comprehend how individuals' choices of car fuel contribute to the quantity of $CO_2$ emissions.

[^r1]: Only $CO2$ is considered among all the other greenhouse gases in this report.
[^r1]: A passenger car is a road motor vehicle, other than a moped or a motor cycle, intended for the carriage of passengers and designed to seat no more than nine persons (including the driver). The term passenger car also covers microcars (small cars which, depending on individual Member State legislation, may need no permit to be driven and/ or benefit from lower vehicle taxation), taxis and other hired passenger cars, provided that they have fewer than 10 seats in total. This category may also includes vans designed and used primarily for transport of passengers, as well as ambulances and motor homes. Excluded are light goods road vehicles, as well as motor coaches and buses and mini-buses/mini-coaches.

"In the current era of globalization, a clean environment remains a crucial factor for the health of the population. Thus, improving air quality is a major focus of environmental policies, as it affects all aspects of nature, including humans. For these reasons, it is appropriate to take into account the health risks posed by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions released into the atmosphere. With regard to global GHG emissions, there are concerns about the loss of protection of the ozone layer and it is very likely that climate change can be expected, which multiplies the environmental threat and has potentially serious global consequences. $CO_2$ emissions have a dominant position among selected GHG emissions. The revealed positive link between $CO_2$ and DALYs indicated that a decrease in $CO_2$ may be associated with a decrease in DALYs, but it is also true that this cannot be done without reducing emissions of other combustion products. $^4$\n",
