> In 2011, approximately 26.7 million tons of pollutants were emitted by GLGE (VOC=461,800; CO=5,793,200; NOx=68,500, PM10=20,700; CO2=20,382,400)
To quote other sources:
CO emission in the United States in 2001 was 120.8 million short tons, of which 74.8 million came from on-road vehicles.
Fair to say around 3% of total CO in USA today is being generated by GLGE (Gasoline powered lawn and garden equipment).
