Pollution
« on: July 12, 2004, 17:17:55 »
Anyone catch Top Gear last night? According to a recent study, a train produces more pollution per passenger than a car! So we should all avoid trains and use our cars to save the planet!

Someone has also worked out how much fuel has been wasted by the extra drag caused by driving around with England flags attached to cars ..... 4.5 million gallons  :o

I saw the show as well. Clarkson also worked out the extra fuel a bearded person would have to spend out in a year - 5 quid I think the answer was.

Start shaving  :D  :D  save fuel!!!
