GREATER MANCHESTER LOW-EMISSION STRATEGY

"Reduce air pollution as a contributor to ill-health in Greater Manchester. ... man-made emissions of greenhouse gases, particularly CO2, are the main cause".

"Research from the group SaveOnEnergy.com reveals that the North West is second only to London for CO2 output."

"Oldham figures are disappointing, the town is 16th in the North West for CO2 emissions"

" CO2 is so far the largest contributor to climate change"

"Evidence that CO2 emissions are the cause of global warming is very robust"



However ....... A Diesel engine produces far less CO2 than a petrol engine does. So why are diesel engined vehicles being outlawed?
