Quite why is something a chemist would have to answer. You'd think given that diesel fuel has a higher percentage carbon content than petrol it would be the other way around. Well of course actually NoX emissons and particulates are far far more dangerous than CO2. In the short term yes, but NOx disappears from the atmosphere in a few hours to a few days and particulates settle into the ground. If all traffic stopped and factories and power stations shut down then the air over britain would be pristine within days. |
