Briefing document / POSTnote on a Diesel vehicle ban and effect on air pollution
Does anyone have any advice on how I should structure this and what I could include?
Thank you

Hi, is this for a piece of work or assignment or course? I can then just move it to a more suitable forum where you should get some answers!

i would take the approach of banning all diesel vehicles is NOT a sensible or reasonable path.
Diesel produces excess toxic emissions such as NOx and Particulate matter.
The problem with this is long term exposure in urban-dense areas.
For heady duty commercial transport: diesel is the best and only viable solution (and compares well with regardes to GHG emissions with other solutions).
What the government needs is to limit diesel to heavy duty transport, and future diesel trucks need to be hybridised with short range electric mode.
So these vehicles can benefit from diesel ICE on long term routes yet will still eliminate tail pipe emissions in urban-dense areas where NOx & PM is an issue.
Hope this helps!
(FYI if you need source, the IEA (international Energy Agency) has some great reports for this type of debate as does the IPCC).

What sort of things could I mention with regards to “risks” and “ethical aspects”? Could I talk about risks and ethical aspects of a potential diesel vehicle ban for older vehicles?
I am thinking of titling the POSTnote “Clean Air Zones and air quality schemes to combat air pollution from diesel vehicles”, and then mentioning a potential diesel vehicle ban for older vehicles (2009 and below) in the five biggest city centres in the UK for the “Recommendations” section?

Thank you. So, I should mention the pros and cons?

What would you recommend for an executive summary - bulletpoints?

-The main problem is commercial transport is needed to support local economies and also essential for supply chain
-heavy duty & commercial travel isnt viable via EV for many reasons including: costs, life-cycle, battery recycleability, lack of infrastructure, recharge requirements
-Their are a whole bunch of sub issues particularly about embedded CO2 in manufacturing these vehicles, where will we get green grid energy, the grid infrastructure couldnt support the current energy load. ....
I dont know what the assignment is, or what you have to do. Just some ideas to think about, take it or leave it.

I also need to make an “executive summary” - is this a summarised version of the POSTnote?

Exec summary's are normally a couple paragraphs like an abstract followed by the key bullet points
