THREAD: Yesterday I tweeted a poll asking people whether greenhouse gas emissions from the UK transport sector have increased or decreased since 1990.

Of 34 people who voted, 68% incorrectly guessed that emissions increased.

UK transport emissions peaked in 2007 and have since dropped 3% below 1990 levels.

The figures include all road, rail, domestic shipping, and domestic aviation. They don't include international shipping and aviation.
