The reality is that owners of gas guzzling 4*4s care nothing about the
planet, or the environment, only themselves.

What a lot of nonsense. This really is media hype for the gullible.

It is the pattern of use which matters, which, in summary, was TNP's
original point.

I have two Land Rovers. They are useful for the things that I want to
do and I like them. The amount of use is quite small, with neither
exceeding 4000km per annum and is considerably less than the average.




Most people *here* would find the information interesting.

Most people would be happy to make small changes to their houses/lives to
save the planet.

Illogical statement. More gullibility.


It would only cost 0.12% of GDP every year, which is
peanuts.


As would be the outcome.


FWIW I have been insulating my house, to well above the then standards for
more than 40 years. Every improvement I have made has made money in the
long run.

Given infinite time, almost anything can do that.
