star this property answer text <p>This information is not available. Total greenhouse gas emissions for each mode of transport are published in Transport Statistics Great Britain table ENV0201: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/energy-and-environment-data-tables-env" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/energy-and-environment-data-tables-env</a>. Total emissions for each transport mode are calculated using various methodologies and data sources. Due to the differences in data sources and calculation methods, it is currently not possible to disaggregate total emissions in a way that allows the calculation of comparable average passenger emissions for the different transport modes. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy does produce conversion factors for use in company reporting, covering a full range of activities which produce greenhouse gas emissions, although these figures are not statistically evidential.</p> more like this

The historic data is not published online. The real terms increase from 1980 was then calculated using the same methodology as above.</p><p> </p><p>While information prior to 1987 was provided in previous PQ responses, it was drawn from historical data which is not readily available and will no longer be provided in future.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Aviation</p><p>The costs of travelling domestically by air are based on fare data taken from the Civil Aviation Authority passenger survey.
