Green Tourism and the C&MC

Not only that WN, but we are told that over 95% of vehicles in the Ulez are now compliant. Wonderful achievement, safer roads and cleaner air as far as vehicles are concerned and the folk living there!

The tonnage of CO vehicle ULEZ emissions pa Is about 13500 tonnes, Heathrow which falls into the ULEZ zone emits about 23.5 Million tonnes pa. 

The important thing is that we increasingly do whatever we can, wherever we can. To throw up our arms and declare that it’s pointless and do absolutely nothing is unthinkable for many. But to be clear, the Ulez is aimed specifically at ensuring clean air standards at street level.

What is interesting is how today’s (last decade or so) air quality in the city has been improved dramatically.

The monitoring results these days remains almost always in the green! That wasn’t the case when I was a youth, it was truly dreadful.

Of course the air travel industry must  improve their ‘lot’ and they have policies and plans to do just that. Whether these are far reaching enough is, of course, debatable.  One thing that is indisputable is that at street level things are so very much better these days and it’s clear why and how this improving situation has come about.
