Did you know that the figure used by the UK government in the car

ONE TENTH that claimed by Ford? If Ford are correct, and making a
new car actually generates ten times as much CO2 as the government
believes, then the car scrappage scheme would be an environmental
faux pas.
er the car scrappage scheme isn't a "green" measure it's an economic
one to help the car companies through the downturn without giving
them a direct cash hand out.
Wonder why we're helping other countries when we're in such a state
ourselves?
