The French capital's mayor hailed a 'clear choice of Parisians' in favor of a measure that is 'good for our health and good for the planet.'

      Well given that the average parking space in Paris is narrow, the wider SUV’s are often taking up two spaces.

      If the driver does manages to squeeze in between the lines, they block access to the vehicles on either side of them. Put 2 or 3 of them next to each other and you’ll need to crawl through the trunk.

      Honestly charging them more just makes sense.

    Very few voters showed up to vote but glad to see they voted against SUVs.Hopefully this will give SUV owners something to think about. In the mean time SUVs will still be driving on, and dangerous for climate and human lives.

    • more bikes

    • free public transport (If Luxembourg can do this, why not other places ?)

      Yep, you’re free to drive everywhere because there’s no infrastructure to support anything but car parks.

      Look up the book “the high cost of free parking”.

      No “we” don’t. I live in a medium-sized city with a compact city center and own a car and I don’t even think surface parking should be a thing.

      Build vertical parking garages that are “free” for 2h or something if you must but there’s no reason we’re wasting space for surface street parking in the most valuable land in the region.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
