London to Hummers: Pay Up!



Brilliant! It's appropriate to charge polluters for the impacts they have on society.

London Mayor Ken Livingstone on Tuesday announced a stinging new charge on driving gas-guzzling vehicles into the centre of the capital, in a bid to cut pollution.

People with the most polluting cars, such as sports utility vehicles and high-powered performance cars, will pay a daily charge of 25 pounds to drive into central London.
