The figures on tyre wear are from a Dutch report.

So, that one small stretch of road dumps nearly 1.3 ton of tyre dust into every year.

And changing every single car to an electric one is not going to fix this.

Around ~30,000 cars use that section of Belfast's ring road daily. Producing around 3.5kg of tyre dust per day. theguardian.com/environment/20
