Do you currently own a diesel car?My diesel car has an mpg of around 56 and a CO2 emission of 115. The petrol version is lower on mpg and around 150 CO2 emmission. Making the (rash) assumption that other emmissions may have a same profile I cannot see how getting rid of diesel cars is the right tack. Watching lorries whenndriving around I would say in genereal they emit more. If they want to do simething constructive improve engine emmissions and resolve the issues with electric cars to get rid of diesel AND petrol over time. Lack of research and funding is, in my opinion the big issue. Banning diesel is like putting a sticking plaster on a broken leg.... more drastic and forward looking measures are needed.
