Well, if an ex-chairman of a massive oil company like Shell say we should cut back on oil use, something's getting through.
From Article:[quote]The UK Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders spokesman Nigel Wonnacott said drivers of polluting cars already paid extra through VED (road tax) and petrol duty. That was enough.[/quote]
So fuck?!!! I don't get their logic here. What's the moral of that remark - money lets you do what you want? I pay more road tax so I should be able to drink & drive, or get away with speeding in built up areas?
