Dirty Transport Polluters

29 May 2024, 06:46

The actual headline is

"Wealthy white men are UK’s biggest transport polluters, study finds"

Weird categorisations of people.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...port-polluters

Wealthy white men from rural areas are the UK’s biggest emitters of climate-heating gases from transport, according to a study.
Research by the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) looked at transport emissions by income, gender, location, ethnicity and age. The study broke down the transport emissions into international and domestic flights, private road transport and public transport.

Wealthy white men are more like to fly.

Great reporting from the Grauniad as ever, but they have to pitch to their audience.

Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

Supported by taxes extorted from Wealthy White Men. It was ever thus.
