I recenlty overheard someone saying the price of petrol is so high it costs the earth nowadays to drive a car. But on another level, this statement is literally true. We've just learned the hole in the ozone layer is bigger than ever.

convenience?

I don't support the reasons for the blockades, or the way they've been imposed, but since they began there's been a welcome decrease in the amount of traffic on the roads. It's been more pleasurable to walk the streets. The air has been noticeably less polluted.

It gives one a sense of how more attractive the world would be without all these millions of stinking, dangerous, eco-hostile cars.
