UK Activists Pay Drivers to Petition for Emissions Standards
British environmental group Futureproof has been giving out £5 bills to drivers who agree to sign a petition to the British Secretary of Transport, Geoff Hoon, to encourage him to seek tougher emission standards for cars sold in the European Union.
“Today we’re giving drivers £5 each and in return asking them to make sure the Government plays its part in keeping the car manufacturers on track towards real progress and not opting for weaker targets,” said Blake Ludwig, the Managing Director for Futureproof.
