Automotive industry is 'chipping away' at carbon emissions


The automotive industry has made some "organic" changes to reduce the environmental impact of its vehicles and is continuing to chip away at carbon emissions, according to the managing director of Carbon Footprint.

John Buckley said there has been a lot of hard work going on among car manufacturers and pointed out that many firms are now actively "pushing" vehicles that have lower emissions.

"In the near-term, new models of cars coming out tend to have better carbon emissions and there's a lot of research going on in the background into alternative fuels as well," he remarked.
