If those emissions standards are so rigorous why is climate change still happening?
> Tram line near my house produces much more noise pollution compared to cars.

Nuclear power is the solution. > Now divide by the number of passengers and try again. Doesn't work like that. You can't divide noise. There's a threshold level.
