It just takes a different mindset. My father used to work in the auto industry and he still complains to no end about the EPA and emissions testing, and how in California the car exhaust is "cleaner" than the air going into it, so the cars are actually all "cleaning the air."
I could easily see people at VW resenting these tests, and actively working to thwart them.
- HeyLaughingBoy 11y agoI'm not really surprised. I used to know someone who ran a small Printed Circuit Board manufacturing shop. His waste water had to meet certain conditions for environmental pollution before he could send it down the sewer. Because the incoming water was so dirty and had to be filtered so well before use, the water going out the sewer connection was actually cleaner than the city water coming in!
