This is just insane. Not only are cars themself mostly unnecessary, if the right infrastructure is provided, but SUVs also use more resources to run and be produced then small cars, without any advantage over them. So an obvious waste, which could easily be cut to reduce emissions.

The fact that we all have to guess how this graph allocated everything speaks to it’s accuracy and usefulness. That was my point. I could create a graph, providing no context to show that SUVs were low polluters. We all believe that to not be the case but my graph could very well be as accurate as this one. We simply can’t tell.
When something like this is shared on a social network without something showing how the conclusion was made, the first instinct should be disbelief
