We have a problem!!
Climate Change Road transport accounts for 22 of
total UK emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2)
the major contributor to climate change.
Local Impacts Vehicle use affects our whole
quality of local life. Traffic can be dangerous
and intimidating, dividing communities and making
street life unpleasant. Abandoned vehicles cause
nuisance, whilst air pollution and traffic noise
can make urban living uncomfortable.
Air Quality Air pollutants from transport include
nitrogen oxides, particles, carbon monoxide and
hydrocarbons. All have a damaging impact on the
health of people, animals and vegetation locally.
