Most idling takes place at stop lights that are not needed.
If it isn't the air quality, it is the water quantity.
As Deb would say, it is a land management issue. Unfortunately what Deb ntends is that people are going to get hurt, and it isn't going to be the bums either. It will be people like the ones in the Milar that got a welfare hotel by their house and other investors in PG. This is the time for people with know-how and money to keep your hands in your pockets. Just like we had to do when the NDP was in power. Now is not a good time to do things in PG, unless you are spending government money.
