I’m sure the air quality isn’t great in London, but this article is a hodgepodge of anecdotes and pollution stats.
But no actual facts about the claimed crisis. Not a single statistic about how people are affected. No documentation of the existence of a crisis, much less documentation of the claim that said crisis is caused by diesel in particular (rather than just air pollution in general).
Would be nice if the author had spent some time finding some facts instead of making everyone dumber with a sensational headline without a factual basis.
