London is one city that is taking the environment seriously. They have just announced the new charge for entering the city. Now, I think this is a little silly to up charge from the regular 8 pounds, but whatever helps the environment in the long run is good.
People with the most polluting cars, such as sports utility vehicles and high-powered performance cars, will pay a daily charge of 25 pounds to drive into central London.
The move is to cut traffic congestion and polluting vehicles in the city. That sounds good to me, and the 25 pounds would definitely deter people from entering the city. I know I wouldn’t go to London in a big Yukon Denali, $48 is not worth it, unless you carpooled.
But, what about hybrid SUVs?
