The chief executives of Europe’s biggest car companies are confronted by Greenpeace activists as they gather for a meeting to decide their EU lobbying strategy. The leaders of car makers including Volkswagen (VW), BMW and Fiat are meeting to discuss their position on key legislation to make Europe’s vehicles more climate-friendly and use less fuel. Despite branding itself as a green car company, VW lobbies against key environmental laws, while it fits its cleanest technology to just six per cent of its cars. Greenpeace believes car companies may try and block the new climate law, or demand loopholes to make it significantly weaker.
