There’s no hiding from the fact that diesel vehicles cause A LOT of pollution. Recently there have been protests in the UK demanding all diesel vehicles to be banned from London, much as other major cities around the world have done.
The belief is that 3 million deaths a year are linked to outdoor air pollution, contributed in part to diesel vehicles. This pressing issue obviously has big consequences for the logistics industry, which in many cases relies heavily on diesel vehicles.
It’s clear that there’s a desire for change. Ultra low emissions zones are being introduced all over the country and many large corporations are taking notice of the issues relating to diesel vehicles and acting fast.
With new technology such as electronic vehicles becoming more of a reality, it’s vital that companies start to plan now and start to invest for the change that is coming. New developments in technology mean that cleaner vehicles are becoming more cost effective; it’s best that companies invest now rather than being left unable to operate when changes take place!
