In this city, we estimate that each passenger produces approximately 862.55kg of CO2 annually as a result of commuting to work or school. To counterbalance this carbon emission, it would require approximately 39.62 trees per passenger to produce enough oxygen. The following formulas are used to make these estimations.

Maybe there are traffic jams, when the motorbikes doesn't move but still produce CO2.

Hi-
I am looking at the calculation for CO2 produced by motorbikes. The formula states that motorbikes produce 80g CO2 per hour.
However, data from other sources (including Honda's own fact sheet) list motorbike CO2 emissions of ~80g per km traveled.
Given the high proportion of commuters using motorbikes in HCMC, this difference in CO2 emission calculation will have a large effect on resulting output data.
