I’m all for tackling air pollution but my personal experience is that the biggest culprits are older buses and black taxis.

Also need to remember that London’s air quality is vastly better than even a decade ago, and the electric car revolution is already underway.

Just wait one car ownership cycle and the problem will be solved. Cheers, David

About half gas, the rest nuclear and renewables.

But renewables are rising very quickly! Cheers, David
