Travelling by train to and from work each day is quite CO2 efficient. If you travel 20 miles every working day, this will 'only' produce 1/2 Ton of CO2 per year.
Let the train take the strain
If you have a 2 liter petrol car and travel 20 miles per day to and from work, then you produce 1.6 Ton of CO2 per year.
If you swap to diesel, this is reduced to 1 ton per year.
Cars are killing the planet
The average UK citizen travels 900 miles per year by car to shop for food.
This is equivalent to circa 0.4 Tons of CO2.
