Welcome to our Emission Impossible web site
Transport is an enormously controversial subject that effects most of our day to day lives. Car travel in particular is on the increase, increasing by 17% over the past ten years. It affects not only our quality of life but also the environment, the economy and the safety of road users.
"We need to tackle congestion, reduce pollution as well as improve road safety. The challenge is how to do this in a way that is sustainable over the long term."
Rt Hon Alistair Darling MP, Secretary of State for Transport (Nov. 2003)
