Cities to combat pollution with ‘green zones’?

The proposition means that cars would be classed into four ‘eco-groups’, sorted according to age and emissions, with each car gaining a coloured sticker much along the lines of Germany’s current ‘Umweltzone’ environmental sticker system.

The move would hit owners of older diesel cars, as the proposal would ban all diesel vehicles manufactured before 1997 from entering the zones, while cars built between 1997 and 2001 would only gain access to certain areas of a given city. (jb)
