That is tripe. Kerbside emissions are lethal. Pollution in cities has

assists greatly too.


CO2 isn't lethal otherwise we'd all be dead. All current petrol engined
cars actually clean the atmosphere in towns of many noxious substances.
But then I'd not expect you to know anything about such things. They don't
tell you that in Prius ads.


ITYM all new petrol engined cars.
Without the cat they wouldn't clean up the air.
Its pointless telling drivel as he won't understand.
