Car lovers: but my emissions :'(
I wonder whether they have noise pollution meters. that would be interesting to see the difference.
Edit: there is! https://carto.bruitparif.fr/ But only until 2022?
2017
2022
2022 was much quieter, but that was also during COVID. I wish they had something for 2023 and 2024
Fuck cars.
80% of the noise over 75dB in a French city is two stroke petrol scooters going "baaaaaaababababbaaaaaaa" at 3 in the morning.
Ugh those need to be banned and replaced with electric scooters. Some place in Asia did that and the air quality went up dramatically.
