“I need my strong lungs so I can play in the Premier League one day.” Here’s Jan from #Tooting explaining why he likes the #ULEZ, which launches TODAY (8th)!

As a 21st Century society we believe 21st Century transport solutions should be the norm not the exception.
Anything we can do to reduce carbon emissions and the associated health dangers is a step in the right direction. A step we must take now before its too late.
The Ultra Low Emission Zone comes into force in central #London this #MondayMorning, but what are the effects of air pollution on our bodies? @BBCNews Science Editor @davidshukmanbbc explains:

Whether you ditch the car in favour of the tube, bus, walking, scooting, cycling or water taxi – we believe car free can be part of the solution to our increasingly congested cities.
We passionately believe scooting will have a transformational impact on your health, happiness, wallet and world around you.
Life on 2 wheels has never been so easy to achieve.
Or so fulfilling.
