Average carbon dioxide emissions per kilometer continue to fall in Europe, according to preliminary figures released by the European Environment Agency (EEA). The average CO 2 emissions for these cars was 135.7 This was mostly due to a sharp decline in uptake in France and Italy, countries where this fuel is most commonly used.
