  We present an analysis of the environmental dependence of bars and bulges in
disc galaxies, using a volume-limited catalogue of 15810 galaxies at z<0.06
from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey with visual morphologies from the Galaxy Zoo
2 project. We find that the likelihood of having a bar, or bulge, in disc
galaxies increases when the galaxies have redder (optical) colours and larger
stellar masses, and observe a transition in the bar and bulge likelihoods, such
that massive disc galaxies are more likely to host bars and bulges. We use
galaxy clustering methods to demonstrate statistically significant
environmental correlations of barred, and bulge-dominated, galaxies, from
projected separations of 150 kpc/h to 3 Mpc/h. These environmental correlations
appear to be independent of each other: i.e., bulge-dominated disc galaxies
exhibit a significant bar-environment correlation, and barred disc galaxies
show a bulge-environment correlation. We demonstrate that approximately half
(50 +/- 10%) of the bar-environment correlation can be explained by the fact
that more massive dark matter haloes host redder disc galaxies, which are then
more likely to have bars. Likewise, we show that the environmental dependence
of stellar mass can only explain a small fraction (25 +/- 10%) of the
bar-environment correlation. Therefore, a significant fraction of our observed
environmental dependence of barred galaxies is not due to colour or stellar
mass dependences, and hence could be due to another galaxy property. Finally,
by analyzing the projected clustering of barred and unbarred disc galaxies with
halo occupation models, we argue that barred galaxies are in slightly
higher-mass haloes than unbarred ones, and some of them (approximately 25%) are
satellite galaxies in groups. We also discuss implications about the effects of
minor mergers and interactions on bar formation.
