What is the point of putting up the RFL of a Chelsea tractor?
It will be used just as much; produce just as much CO2; the
environment sees no benefit.

The argument is that it changes people's buying decisions, also
what car makers produce. Certainly as far as company cars are
concerned the evidence seems to be that CO2 is a significant
factor in choosing what to buy - thus all the diesel BMWs and
Audis.

What makes less sense is my Borough's much publicised decision to
charge for residents parking permits according to CO2. This is
really nothing more than a tax on not having a driveway.
