National pollution emissions riddle

Word has it that the coronavirus dividend returned a reduction in carbon emissions reduction of 7% due to bulk fall in usage of transport related fuel

7% reduction is wonderful , but I wonder where the other 93% is sourced from ? cigarettes ? 

 

 

Just wondering as well , with the bulk reduction in truly dangerous pollution from cars and trucks etc particularly in inner city , has there been any reports of people suffering non-specific withdrawal symptoms and a subsequent surge in glowing health ?

I live on a main road, and haven't perceived any reduction in traffic.

School hols here and far less traffic/caravans than usual going through my town, I am guessing it's cause the Vic/SA border is closed. When the total Vic lockdown was happening, my little town was like morgue, no one was driving around, up at the shops etc.

I think it varies according to where you live.

My son in law is a brickie and he was saying how marvellous it was through April, with only about half the usual amount of traffic on the roads.

He lives out Clyde North way (outer sth east of Melbourne) but had to travel various places on the job.

 

I think traffic is about back to normal now though.

Traffic pollution /congestion in the cities is horrible, I couldn't live in it.

You get used to it. 5G negates any harmful effects.
