Labour MP Colin Challen Says Car Ads Should Carry ‘Emissions Warning’

Posted on | October 31, 2006 | Comments Off

Environmental Car Data

And mine do!!! I display full emissions data on my index pages, for each car, and more information on my drill-down pages, and I am finalising the “fridge sticker” so everyone can print it out (for a car they are interested in). No other UK car sales company displays this full info for a range of models, or allows you to print out the info label.

Other companies are like tobacco makers – only do things when forced! Get forcing them, Colin Challen!!

“COLIN CHALLEN, the New Labour MP for Morley and Rothwell, has called for car-makers to display carbon emissions information in advertisements.The MP, who is chairman of the Commons climate change group, says as much as a quarter of the space in car ads should be devoted environmental impact data.

“A prominent display of this advice from the chief scientific advisor to the government would help us all make more informed and responsible choices,” he said on Friday.

Today (Mon Oct 30th), he will present his bill to Parliament.”
