Dubai to test 10 GM ‘green’ cars
From Times Wire Services
Dubai will be first country in the Middle East to test General Motors Corp.’s “green” cars as the United Arab Emirates seeks to cast off its reputation as the world’s biggest polluter.
In Abu Dhabi, GM executive Mary Beth Stanek said the company would bring 10 hybrid cars to Dubai next month for testing by police and taxis.
The U.A.E. emits more pollution per capita than any other country, according to the World Wildlife Fund’s “Living Planet” report of October 2006.
