Decreasing vehicle emissions saves lives

The link between decreasing vehicle emissions and more lives being saved by preventable illnesses and afflictions is obvious. This is another reason as to why any alleged cheating of emissions regulations must be investigated, and any carmaker found to be breaking the rules must be punished.

Consumers who have been caught up in the various emissions scandals here in the UK can be eligible to join a group action for justice. The purpose of this can be to pursue compensation from the carmaker if owners have been misled, as the law can entitle this. Taking such action can act as a form of justice for any affected owners and former owners, and it can also serve as additional punishments for the offenders.

The dangers of emissions

Emissions are dangerous. They can harm human health and cause damage to our environment. This is a very well-known thing, and it is why we have strict emissions regulations that control what is emitted to prevent too much damage being done.

As such, decreasing vehicle emissions can obviously lead to benefits for both human health and the environment. People can die prematurely as a result of conditions that can be triggered or made worse by pollutants like NOx, so it is so important that vehicle emissions levels are controlled.

This is a big part of why we are doing what we are doing. We are holding any carmakers to account that are proven to have cheated emissions regulations.

A recent study in decreasing vehicle emissions

To prove the point, information from a recent study was published by Harvard that confirmed the clear link between decreasing vehicle emissions and preventing avoidable deaths.

News about the US study, published at the end of 2021, reported that decreases had “yielded major health benefits”, and that “deaths attributable to air pollution dropped by thousands”.

Whilst it is obvious to see that there should be a clear link between decreasing vehicle emissions and saving lives, it is always positive to see a real news story from an esteemed group publishing about the data. In relation to the VW emissions scandal, one scientific study suggested that the excess pollution from vehicles involved in the “dieselgate” scandal could have contributed toward thousands of additional premature deaths.

Joining the fight for emissions justice

We are now pursuing claims for thousands of people against dozens of different carmakers in respect of allegations that emissions regulations have been cheated. Whilst carmakers are adamant that they have done nothing wrong and are strongly denying any involvement in breaking the law, there is enough information to pursue the claims that we are doing.

If any of the allegations are proven to be true, consumers who may have been misled could be eligible to claim thousands of pounds in emissions compensation. The cases are already live and are proceeding, so there is no need to wait around and there may be court deadlines for joining the actions. We offer No Win, No Fee legal representation for eligible clients, so what have you got to lose?
