http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/tag/co2emissions en-us 40 <p>In our neighboring country, Sweden, king Carl Gustav has publicly been a proponent of sustainable living. <a href="http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article776976.ab" title="Aftonbladet">Aftonbladet</a> has earlier reported that the king is recycling and offers rather tap water than bottled water. As he likes his cars, so far he has had 9 gas-guzzlers in his garage. However, today Aftonbladet reported that the king has been seen driving a Volvo S30, a compact car with fairly good exhaust values. I'm happy to see that people don't just talk anymore, but also act. Especially it's important that public figures show a good example in this. </p> <p>By the way, if you are interested in the exhaust values of cars, have a look at the <a href="http://ekoake.autoalanverkkopalvelu.fi/default.asp" title="Ekoake">Ekoake</a> search service by Finnish authorities. You can search for cars with the max CO2 emissions or gas consumption. If you see such services in English, please let me know!</p> Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:04:00 +0200 urn:uuid:007be29b-b28a-43fe-b295-2e4d56434d84 admin http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/2007/12/29/live-like-you-teach Transport CO2 emissions car http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/trackback/8 <p>I'd like to find databases of emission values for different cars.</p> <p>UK</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.smmtco2.co.uk/co2search2.asp" title="SMMT">The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders</a></li> </ul> <p>US</p> <ul> <li><p><a href="http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/sbs.htm" title="Fueleconomy">Fueleconomy.gov</a> by US Department of Energy, </p></li> <li><p><a href="http://www.terrapass.com/road/calcdetails.html" title="Terrapass">Terrapass calculator</a> estimates CO2 emissions from MPG </p></li> </ul> <p>Canada</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.treecanada.ca/cleanairpass/" title="Cleanairpass">Cleanairpass</a> by cleanairpass Inc </li> </ul> <p>Finland</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://ekoake.autoalanverkkopalvelu.fi/default.asp" title="Ekoake">Ekoake</a>, by Autorekisterikeskus </li> </ul> Sat, 29 Dec 2007 18:27:00 +0200 urn:uuid:29877359-7377-403d-8d71-201a83854754 admin http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/2007/12/29/car-emission-databases Transport CO2 emissions car
