So, nearly Frankfurt time again. The IAA's significance to the industry is more profound than I can distil in the few hundred words I have at my disposal here. But for all the advanced technologies on display from the 900 or so exhibitors expected at the show, I think it will all come down to this - CO2. You might believe that, on a molecular level, oxides of nitrogen pose a much greater threat to the environment but the fact is that legislators around the world, directly or indirectly, have focused on carbon dioxide instead. But the best way to address the problem is not so clear cut. That's evident from the discussions between experts at leading industry events such as the Vienna Motor Symposium - you'll find as much disagreement there on well-to-wheels analyses as you will among the politicians.
