Abstract: A comprehensive review identified the misguided nature of favourable taxation for diesel vehicles: 'global warming has been negatively affected, and air pollution has become alarming in many European locations.'1 Policymakers did not adequately consider the serious health effects of particles less than 2.5 microns in size (PM 2.5)-known since 1993 when the Six Cities study was published-and the additional global warming from nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide, ozone, and black carbon emissions.
