"per capita" is misleading here. We don't measure concrete production per capita like that for example



it's not misleading at all. Not only are those two methods of transportation also the largest in absolute terms. Per Capita costs are what matters because that indicates the efficiency of that particular mode of transportation. we definitely should measure concrete usage that way. If country A houses ten times more people with the same amount of concrete as country B, A is vastly more environmentally friendly.
