Climate News / Opinion

Both news and articles of interest. "Solarpunk" as well as dystopian articles welcome, but they should be rooted in talking about projections, technology, society or ideas relating to climate change and our future not be pure fiction.

The increasing popularity of ultra-heavy SUVs in England means a conventional-engined car bought in 2013 will, on average, have lower carbon emissions than one bought new today, new research has found.

The study by the climate campaign group Possible said there was a strong correlation between income and owning a large SUV, which meant there was a sound argument for “polluter pays” taxes for vehicle emissions based on size.

Huge, bulky cares emit more?!? Who would've thought?
