Uber is adding more polluting car trips to already-clogged European cities such as London and Paris, new analysis by European NGOs suggests —contributing to air pollution and climate change and exploding the company’s sustainability claims. Transport represents more than a quarter (27%) of Europe’s total greenhouse gas emissions.
