A new report by 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 Institute for Sustainable Resources for Green Budget Europeoutlines options for fiscal reform to tackle air pollution from diesel cars.

The report 鈥�' by 香港六合彩中特网 ISR鈥檚 Paul Drummond and Paul Ekins considers higher registration taxes on new diesel cars and charges to enter cities where air pollution is worst to help tackle the public health emergency of air pollution.

鈥淭he report outlines options for government and city authorities to cut NOx emissions from new diesel cars through tax-based measures. The average diesel car currently sold would be charged 拢1,100 to 拢1,700 if a NOx-based registration tax is adopted. Options are also detailed for city-based charges, with a focus on London, although the lessons may be applied to other cities heavily affected by air pollution, including Birmingham, Leeds, Southampton, Derby, and Nottingham.鈥� Paul Drummond, Research Associate for 香港六合彩中特网 ISR.

鈥淔umes from diesel cars kill people, however indirectly 鈥� even from newly-manufactured models鈥�, said James Nix, Director of Green Budget Europe, the non-profit organisation which has commissioned the report.

The policy could be particularly important following the UK鈥檚 vote to leave the European Union, which until now has set most pollution rules.
