I read it in the news that it's car free day in HK today.
Then it went on about how the CE and the officials are gonna get to work.
It seems really ridiculous when some, instead of having their usual door-to-door private transportation services, are taking cabs.
What's the point of having "car free" day then?
Wasn't the point of this whole thing to promote a greener way of living, i.e. taking advantage of public transportation and or doing car pooling?
Yes, indeed, cabs emit less GHGs than your phaetons, but doesn't it also produce more GHGs per head (if 2 people share a cab) than a mini van?
I dunno if cabs run on diesel or petrol, but if there're more green hybrid cabs around, then it'll be even better!
Though I very much doubt who's gonna do this given the high costs of these vehicles.
