A Day Without Car Pollution!

A Day Without Car Pollution!

Josh Rickards

Popularity

This is the 52nd most popular campaign

Vehicle emmissions are responsible for millions of deaths and respiratory problems in Europe alone, my campaign calls anyone and everoyone to go just ONE DAY without using the car.

My campaign used shocking facts (such as numbers of deaths/illnesses caused/year etc) and images highliting the extreme issue of car pollution in an attempt to 'de-glamourise' the car as an easy and practical means of transport. Moreover, schemes such as the congestion charge (in areas where this scheme has been adopted) and any other negative aspect of driving in an attempt to persuade people to go without the car for ONE DAY!

Furthermore my campaign emphasises the +'s of public transport as well as bikes and walking and indeed, every other possible methoad of transport that isn't the car, in an attempt to persuade as many as possible to go one day without their cars and contribute to helping the environment!

yeah that would be a good idea, that's why im not learning to drive because of the pollution and the expense!i think the government should give grants to everyone who changes their old cars for new environmentally friendly cars!!!!!!!!!give excisting drivers incentives to change!
