Wealthy white men are UK’s biggest transport polluters, study finds

IPPR research examines transport emissions by income, gender, location, ethnicity and age

Wealthy white men from rural areas are the UK's biggest emitters of climate-heating gases from transport, according to a study.

Research by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) looked at transport emissions by income, gender, location, ethnicity and age. The study broke down the transport emissions into international and domestic flights, private road transport and public transport.
