The Science behind See2
Flying
TheCarbonIndependent.org
Open LinkThe best source with credible data we found on this website. It contains not only the kerosene itself, but also the effect of releasing CO2 high in the atmosfere and the addition of extracting crude oil, refineries and aircraft manufacture, etc.
ICAO.int
Open LinkCompare this to the ICAO website where you can fill out a form. The amounts differ by a factor 3 to the above reference.
Sustainable Energy - Without the hot air
Open LinkThe late professor David JC MacKay wrote a truly wonderful book about energy transition and debunked many myths about green energy. He showed several credible future energy pathways for Great Brittain, as well as for other countries. At the end of the book there is a marvelous overview of energy consumption per person for each of the transport means.
Driving
TheCarbonIndependent.org
Open LinkThe best source with credible data we found on this website. It contains not only the fuel itself, but also the effect of oil and gas extraction but also the CO2 produced during manufacture, maintenance, etc.
Sustainable Energy - Without the hot air
Open LinkIn this case the information from Mr. MacKay is a bit outdated and worst case. Typical numbers for person vehicles is about 50mpg of petrol for a small to medium suv. He also computed numbers for electrical car driving.
CO2 emissions from cars: facts and figures
Open Link
Did you know that 60% of the CO2 emissions in the transport sector come from cars? And did you know that electric cars where less green if running from electricity produced in a coal power plant?
eating meat
Fleisch Atlas - Daten und Fakten über Tiere als Nahrungsmittel
Open LinkThe production of meat has a huge impact on CO2 not only the methane gas (23x greenhouse potential than carbondioxide) they produce, but also the amount of CO2 that is needed to feed these billions of animals.
Eat less meat - CO2 emission of our food
Open LinkNumbers for the calculation of CO2 per kg of meat. Taken from Pendos CO2 Zahler on https://www.co2online.de/service/multimedia-center/broschueren-und-faltblaetter/co2-zaehler/
Die CO2 Bilanz des Bürgers
Open LinkLots of very interesting facts about the personal CO2 production of Germans.

How much CO2 is produce per kWh in USA?
Open LinkDepending on your local country green energy percentage, the types of power plant and your own green energy percentage the CO2 production per kWh is computed.
CO2 Intensity of electricity generation
Open LinkNice indications per type of fuel of the power plant, including other contibutors like CO2 involved in transporting oil and petrol and making it out of crude oil.

A lot of energy goes into making stuff and transporting it. This is calculated in this publication, which also treats other sources of personal CO2.
