Tyre Extinguishers
Members of the Tyre Extinguishers group deflate the tyres of SUVs overnight in Bristol, September/October 2022.
Leaflets are left on the vehicle windscreen to inform the owner of what has happened for their safety. It's part of a worldwide action to deflate the tyres of urban SUVs, which the group say are "the second-largest cause of the global rise in carbon dioxide emissions over the past decade - more than shipping, aviation, heavy industry and even trucks".
