Comment on the article in The Independent

One thing consumers have to do is stop buying new cars - unless the cars are near zero emission or electric. This should have happened in 1990, and car makers would all be making zero emission cars by now.

However, consumers doing their greenest best, and becoming activists too, will not be enough - the big industrial emitters also need to change, possibly as a result of the consumer activism, but still they need to reduce their carbon emissions.
