Ban the cruise ships!

Luxury cruise giant emits 10 times more air pollution (SOx) than all of Europe’s cars – study

Quote
Carnival Corporation, the world’s largest luxury cruise operator, emitted nearly 10 times more sulphur oxide (SOX) around European coasts than did all  260 million European cars in 2017, a new analysis by sustainable transport group Transport & Environment reveals.[1] Royal Caribbean Cruises, the world’s second largest, is second, yet four times worse than the European car fleet. SOX emissions form sulphate (SO4) aerosols that increase human health risks and contribute to acidification in terrestrial and aquatic environments.

They're gonna gain fukall road space cutting down those trees at a time when they say buses,cars are the problem with climate change yet they want to put more on the road especially with their bus connects plan....carbon taxes will sort the problem out!!
Aren’t they also cutting them down for this 5G high speed connectivity.

It might also be for when autonomous cars come along, so theymcan still drive in Autumn when all the leaves fall off the trees, land on a sensor and stop all the traffic behind them

Why don't they bring in some genius, pay him a couple of  100'rd grand and let him devise a one way system (say 4 Mile radius from o'Connell Brig)
He who fears he will suffer, already suffers because he fears.

All the Save the Planet ban the car articles in the Press since the Greens got elected .Government see the opportunity to try win over the Greens before the General election and line them up for coalition and at the same time introduce Carbon tax ,congestion charges and traffic restrictions while they can blame the Greens for wanting to carry out the agenda of their voters .

The Dublin Bay incinerator disaster was signed off by a "Green" (just a label for Marxist headers) Minister.
