    Last time I was at Paris, I was amazed at the absence of car exhaust fumes. It was so refreshing walking for hours in a big city and not drowning in dirty air. Seeing the impact that so little petrol cars have, and how many Parisians are driving electric and hybrid cars, as well as electric bikes and cargo bikes is amazing.

    straightforward advertising for fossil gas or petroleum products has already almost disappeared, except for some campaigns around price discounts at the pump.

    In all the countries I’ve been in, I can’t say I’ve ever really noticed advertising for vehicle fossil fuels. Home heating oil and propane, though, I’ve seen plenty.
