    Emissions

    There has been much talk about diesel car emissions since the VW scandal broke. The attached table from an article on the car emissions story from today's Irish Times makes some interesting reading....... You can form your own opinion on the matter........

    Tax on diesel fuel may have to be increased to limit a trend that has seen the number of private cars powered by it rise significantly in recent years, the Department of Finance has warned.

    Ireland should phase out diesel and petrol vehicles but the Government must inform people of the costs involved in the change, according to the State’s climate change watchdog.
