So Richmond Council says 鈥淩ichmond upon Thames householders produce more CO2 than most other boroughs in London.鈥� I live in one of the less affluent (yes, there are a few) corners of the borough and don鈥檛 much like my local authority naming and shaming me as a planet destroyer.

Maybe that鈥檚 because I鈥檓 hardly a typical Richmond resident. For starters, there鈥檚 that issue of my level of affluence (or lack of it). Then I don鈥檛 drive, I rarely take a flight, I fitted my home with low energy lightbulbs following my trial with an Electrisave device (see earlier blog) and I put out my food recycling bin every week (even though a blackened banana skin and the leftovers of the Friday night takeaway curry are all I can manage by way of contents).

Still I am delighted the council is proposing to link the price of residents鈥� parking permits to car emissions, so that drivers of Porsche 911s and Range Rovers pay more. It鈥檒l help CO₂ emission levels and the value of my humble home, which has that most prized of possessions: a parking space.
