CO2 emissions in Mato Grosso by automotors veicles

Abstract

High rates of Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is strongly related to the rising in the automobiles production due to the high consume of fuel, either fossile or non exhaustible. In regions with high farming production, the incremente in the heavy autmobiles favor, consequently, the rising in the Diesel consumption, which is one of the most atmospheric pollutant. Being the state of Mato Grosso a big centre of farming production, these emissions must be  considerably high, however, an inventory is necessary searching for mitigatories methods. Therefore, this work has the aim to show the relation between the increment of fuel and the CO₂ emissions to the atmosphere, comparing cities with distinct comercial activities and basing in statistial annuaries. Our results indicate that there is a signitificative growth on the fossile fuel selling, as well as the non exhaustible, which lead to high CO₂ emissions to the atmosphere. We highlight that Diesel was the type of fuel representing the most emissions, almost 5 times more than Gasoline, and 6 times more than the Ethanol. The city in the North of the state, that presents high farming production, was the responsible for 4 times more consumption of Diesel than the city in the Southwest, that belongs to the farming distribution between states, ending in 2.7 times more emissions in the North than in the Southwest. These results provides a view of the fuel consumption in the Mato Grosso state, as well as highlight the necessity of awareness for the reduction of greenhouse gases.
