    Not so! Riding bicycles and the additional exertion, results in increased respiration therefore more human CO2 “emisssions”. This is entirely counterproductive when compared to the gentle respiration involved with driving a car, or even a leisurely stroll.

    In addition, I doubt whether the proponents of bicycle riding have taken into account the increase in other “effluvium”, released as a result of the increased exertion and metabolic rate in the human digestive tract.

      True that: travelled through Ch!na in 1986 when they re-opened to the world (solo, not in a tour group) and apart from buses, trains, boats – and black limos for the bosses – everyone rode bicycles or walked.

      Now that the ‘Middle Kingdom’ has leapt way ahead into the 21st century, Greens, Karens, and schoolgirls want us to return to those ‘communist’ means of transport to like, I mean, y’know, literally ‘save the planet’.

      I have no problem with warmth, the more the merrier! But at my age, my 4×4 diesel van suits me fine, and the planet’s been here longer than me.
