In the years to come, all Londoners are going to be proud that it led the way on low-emissions policies and reducing lethal air pollution. We will look back on the argument about the newly extended Ultra-Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) like we do on past rule changes to outlaw child labour, betting on animal fights & defecation in public places.

Of course highly polluting vehicles have to go. You can argue about the mechanisms for managing it, but not the principle behind it all.

@helenczerski That is great! Although, in developing countries like mine, India, for most people making ends meet is way more important than thinking about the environment. Sure, we are getting affected by global warming, but in my country, the government’s focus is upon providing basic services, such as electricity & education, to all parts of the country.
