About This Forum

CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".

IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 16years old!
Well done to ALL posters


It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.

RULES No personal insults. No swearing.

   This article:

   http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/jan/16/world-heslth-organisation-figures-deadly-pollution-levels-world-biggest-cities

   contains the line:

   "In Britain, where latest figures suggest that around 29,000 people a year die prematurely from particulate pollution"

   29,000? That's 10 times the number who died on 9-11.

   Also more than 16 times the number killed in road traffic collisions in 2014.
