Scooters are generally smaller than other vehicles so they use less materials to produce and ship. Moreover, thanks to their smaller engines scooters get much better mileages than cars. By burning less petrol per mile you will emit less greenhouse gases help keeping the planet clean. In general, then, scooters are relatively good for the environment. However, there are big differences between scooter engines and when you take into account all pollutants rather than just carbon dioxide some of them can pollute as much as SUVs!
Motorized scooters with two stroke engines are very fast and are cheap to make but because they burn a mixture of oil and petrol they emit more carbon monoacid and hydrocarbons in their exhaust which are very bad for the environment . Two stroke engines also create an unpleasant smell and more noise. 4 stroke engines may be a bit more expensive and you do need to change the oil every 1250 miles but they are much better for the environment and their engines last longer than 2 stroke
