car. of course the original air-conditioning, which just ran off the vents in the front wouldn't be sufficient to keep a car of this size cool. they added a secondary conditioning unit in the trunk to add some more power to it. but even sew, it was still -- it could be sweltering hot in that car. they never quite found it. but this car was used all the way through 1977 into the carter administration. it was no longer the primary presidential vehicle, by the early 1970s. but it might be used by a president if the primary vehicle was unavailable for some reason. but it's kind of remarkable to think it was used for that long before it was finally retired from service and came here to the henry ford museum of american innovation. i should point out, too, these cars at this time were not purchased outright by the white house. they didn't have the budget at that time to be buying expensive vehicles like this. they were instead leased to the white house by lincoln. lincoln thought it was worth it. they got tremendous publicity out of it. and it was a good deal for the white house. they had a 10, 15-y

car. just as air force one used as a perk and president uses as a tool to persuade people to vote the way he wants them to. this is a car built in 1972, several decades old, and the fact is the cars recommendly aren't going to museums anymore, pat of that is they are not building one primary car but several copies of the primary parade car. so more of them out there. then partly i think too these cars are really destroyed at the end of the service life. and that's partly perhaps to keep the technology from falling into the wrong hands. but i think also to test the effectiveness of the armor against different and more modern weapons. so it's weird to srare to see t museums, and we may not get any more, but of course we got these from the lincoln motor company, leased to the white house, and when they expired lincoln took the cars back and then turned around and gave them to us for which we are very grateful. now the cars are provided by cadillac and purchased out right by the white house so they won't go back, they'll remain tt product of the government. visitors have a lot of questions abo

implications for carmakers in germany which is europe's largest car manufacturer larry diverter is a senior global campaigner for coal and air pollution at greenpeace he joins us from hanoi in vietnam larry what does this say about the future of diesel both cars and lorries trucks in in the future in the next say ten years or so. first of all this is a part of a fairly global realize sation that air pollution is one of the most serious public health threats the biggest environmental health threat in the world and more action is being taken not only in europe but in china india and other asian countries diesel vehicles are being singled out because they're among the more polluting vehicles and we're short to see more regulation on emissions from. cars and trucks and more ambitious targets to shift to electric vehicles as a part of their efforts to address air pollution is there there for all was there therefore a certain hypocrisy on the part of the manufacturers because there was a point in the late eighty's the early ninety's when we were all told diesel is good and the big manufacturers the big we're talking about germany

air, that's what causes the pollution? yes. well, this is what astonished me, actually, about the study is you guys say more than cars? were made as part of a large field campaign that the national oceanic and atmospheric administration in the us had conducted. and we saw in those measurements that it's about half and half between cars and the emissions from consumer products, as well as industrial uses of chemical products. and then we also looked at indoor air quality measurements from buildings notjust in the us but in cities around the world, and we also found these emissions in buildings as well. but this is astonishing because let's just say for example, this is my kind of basic mathematics, if you take, you know, a household of four people and they go off in their cars and go off in buses, for example, for the day, and you compare that to how much household cleaning products and deodorants that they use, surely the cars will have more pollution than the household cleaning products? so there's a couple of reasons for why this could be the case. one is it's true in the us that the average consumer uses about 15 t
