      Sure. So 30% of emissions are due to transportation and about half of that is private vehicles. That makes the emissions caused by private vehicles to be about 15% of the total number.

      Not insignificant but not quite the whole story either. Wouldn’t still go as far as to say it’s the “largest source”
