Bristol joins UK councils banning ads for fossil fuels and SUVs
Original: "Bristol is riding a UK wave: more than 20 UK councils, including Sheffield, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Portsmouth, have now
Bristol has become the latest UK council to ban advertising for fossil fuel companies, SUVs and ultra-fast fashion. More than 20 councils, including Sheffield, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Portsmouth, have already introduced similar curbs on ads for climate-harming products. The campaign group Badverts is tracking the spread of the policy, which supporters say limits promotion of polluting industries in public spaces.
Why now: Bristol joining a growing list of UK councils restricting high-carbon advertising shows the policy is spreading quickly and drawing attention to climate-focused ad bans.
