  1. “Lol this is obvious”

    If this is you, grow up.

    “Obvious” needs proving otherwise nothing changes as no one is held to account or needs to change.

    A mountain of evidence proving the obvious is how anything changes the system.

  2. But let’s get rid of the ULEZ right? Right? I got a local council election leaflet today blaming the Lib Dem’s and Greens for the ULEZ! Two parties who haven’t been in power!!

  3. King Edward the First even had somebody executed for ignoring clean air initiatives, I wonder what the chances are of finally making a difference more than 700 years after that first report?

  4. >Air pollution causes harm to people at all stages of life, researchers from Imperial College London have found.

    >The report, commissioned by the Greater London Authority,

    So Sadiq Khan pays Imperial to write a report that backs up his agenda, and they write a report that backs up his agenda…I’m not buying it.

    The air is the cleanest it has been for decades; certainly during the lifetime of anyone currently alive. And the vast, vast majority of people are, were, and will continue to be, just fine.

    It sounds like the only people supposedly being “harmed”, are a tiny minority of people with the sort of underlying health conditions that basically leave you vulnerable to being alive.

  5. Most people won’t change their lifestyle even slightly though. People won’t campaign for more public transport or more cycle lanes, nor will they stop driving short distances. They will still support animal agriculture and buying lots of useless crap. Everyone knows this is bad but even scientific evidence proving that will not lead to them taking action.
