Honda F1’s 2007 “Earth Car” has been designed to promote environmental awareness, how can this be?

The car will be responsible for emitting approx 50 tonnes of carbon dioxide this season which works out probably more than 5 times the amount an average British car produces in a year.

The racing season also requires Button and Barrichello to fly about 158,000 kilometres between their Monaco bases and the race circuits, producing a further 28,638 tonnes of CO2 .

Is the only thing green about this car it’s colour?
