Called the Advanced Clean Vehicle Cars programme, this project is aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions. The project is also intended to help tackle smog and other airborne pollutants. The programme will run from 2015 to 2025. The aim of the project is that by 2025, one in seven vehicles being sold in the state will either by electric or a plug-in type hybrid with range technology.

    EarthSense Systems has published MappAir, a high-resolution map of air pollution throughout the entire UK. MappAir shows how air pollution - specifically nitrogen dioxide - changes across the country and within towns and cities, highlighting likely sources and potential clean-air refuge areas. It combines data from satellites and its EarthSense Systems’ own air quality monitoring sensors along with open source data. The result, using complex modelling, creates a highly accurate map at 100m resolution, says
