Well, people like clean air and clean water when they can force others to pay for it.
When they are affected, then suddenly the issue is entirely different......
Most folk only have a car or two to worry about, and so don’t see or care what it costs to get that last few percent of change from an internal combustion engine. Once their lawn mower has a cat converter and starts everything on fire and costs double, it will be too late for them to realize what happened....
Moving up to tier 2 did a lot of good.
Tier 3 is questionable, as it made everything so much less efficient I’m not sure what we gained. There is a bit cleaner air coming out the exhaust, but we are burning a lot more fuel and so what was gained for sure?
Going past 3 seems to be negligible gains for the cost, looking at the big picture of resources used, efficiencies, and so on.
But, as you say, it sounds good in the paper and someone else has to pay for it so let’s do more! Bring on tier 6 because more is better it doesn’t affect me!
