Description

A man drives an enormous SUV which he is able to afford because of the drop in fuel prices. The cartoon has a large 'Jurassic Carpark' logo on it as a play on the film title 'Jurassic Park'. The suggestion is that large vehicles are like dinosaurs. The rise in prices over the past few months meant that many people thought twice about owning a car that used a lot of fuel and this had the effect of being positive for the environment because less CO2 was going into the atmosphere.
