Researchers from King’s College London and Observatoire de l’air en Île-de-France found that neither London nor Paris meet legal limits for air pollution. Paper co-author Gary Fuller, an air pollution scientist at King’s, said the study had some good news, some bad news and a warning. Fuller said:The diesel emissions scandal had a serious impact on air pollution in Europe’s two mega-cities. Powered two-wheelers have long been a fixture in Paris, but their use in London has also been on the increase, he said. Deliveroo would not tell Forbes.com how many of its London riders use mopeds.
