Practise evaluating alternative fuels and transport choices using renewability, CO2 emissions and climate-change arguments.

How this is tested

  • justify bioethanol as renewable while noting land or food-crop disadvantages when asked
  • compare electric cars or hydrogen with alkane fuels using local CO2 and pollutant emissions
  • explain fossil-fuel climate impact by linking released CO2 to increased greenhouse warming
