It’s time to consign these giant SUVs to the rubbish heap of history
The vehicles are not only too big and dangerous, they create a disproportionate amount of pollution that ends up in the ocean

Woodsmoke and tobacco smoke contain many of the same carcinogenic substances, for example formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).
We don't have NHS-approved cigarettes, so why is it OK to have a Defra-approved stove?

Cars are getting 1cm wider every two years. That may not sound much, but over time it adds up, and they're showing no signs of slowing down 😬
That's #carspreading. Our new campaign is calling on city leaders to make parking policies fairer by varying costs based on the size of a car.

Los Angeles is burning, the UK is experiencing more and stronger storms than ever before, and our Chancellor wants to increase flying within and to and from the UK. We've written to tell her why we think that from an #AirPollution and #Climate perspective, this is unbelievable. #Heathrow

Thinking of buying a cosy wood-burning stove?
Forget it.
They pollute the atmosphere for your neighbours & if that doesn't worry you, they pollute the air inside your very own home.
And you also have to regularly clean out the ash etc. Yuck.
