<p class="card-text">Every day, a certain number of passengers travel from neighboring cities (column 1) to Tübingen (column 2). Calculate how much the environment is polluted by using different means of transportation.
Besides CO2, vehicles emit other harmful substances such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), hydrocarbons (HC), particles (PM), sulfur gases (SOx), and heavy metals. Only CO2 is specified in the task. Fill in the solutions for the remaining columns:</p>
