23 April 2001: A new Environmental Section of IrishCar.Com, Ireland's most comprehensive motoring website, is dedicated to news about the environment, particularly as it relates to cars and motoring.

The new section will provide coverage of initiatives, surveys, research and straight-up facts about the impact of industry and travel on the delicate fabric of our small blue planet, as well as detailing how the world's automakers are working to lessen the effects of cars on the overall equation.

"At a time when the number of cars are increasing, particularly in developing countries, it is important that we know just what's happening, in as far as we can," says IrishCar.Com editorial director Brian Byrne. "There's a lot going on, and we'll try and distill it to a managable news format."
