Should London Ban Cars To Reach Its Carbon Goal?
A report suggests that the only way London can reach its 2025 carbon reduction goals would be to take drastic measures, such as banning all cars from the city.
"Researchers claim the Greater London Authority's (GLA) target to reduce CO2 emissions by 60% by 2025 is unlikely to succeed without drastic measures."
"The report says emissions could be cut by 72% by 2030 if cars were banned from the city."
"In response to the findings London Green Party member Jenny Jones said: 'I have asked the London mayor to do a feasibility study into creating a car free pedestrian zone in central London linking all the main squares and parks.'"
"'We need to show that the car no longer rules in London and that the future is based upon public transport, cycling and walking.'"
