The creative actions need to go zero carbon
Give up your car and get £100
Drivers are being encouraged to give up their cars - with an offer of £100 to put towards a bicycle.
The scheme has been launched by Islington council, which wants to slash carbon emissions in the borough.
It will give a voucher for £100 - enough to buy a basic bike - to any resident who does not renew their annual parking permit, which cost up to £200 for vehicles with large engines, so-called "gas-guzzlers".
