Wow, we're still doing this? Is it 2000 yet? Please don't start with elaborate secondary effect models unless your model can accurately account for all CO2 emissions of a country per year. Until then, all I'm seeing is someone fudging numbers and components to include/exclude in search of a preconceived conclusion.

The first obvious failure is not accounting for the electricity that already goes into refining oil to gasoline and diesel. A comparison that stops at the exhaust pipe for ICEs is straining credibility.
