We want this for Nicosia!

This one comes from Pola:

FREE CHARGING

On a recent vacation in London, Cars.com producer Martin Stocks stumbled across the Recharging Points for electric vehicles you see here. About 20 such stations heve been instaled around central London to allow owners of electric vehicles to recharge their cars while at work or shopping. Here's what Martin had to say about the phenomenon:




“Despite the lack of available vehicles, those who choose to be an early adopter can potentially save a lot of money. The Charging Stations are free to use, and vehicles that use them also park for free. Parking in central London can be up to $50 a day. In addition, electric vehicles are exempt from London 's $16-per-day congestion charge. So that's $66 per day saved before we even factor in gas at $7 a gallon. You don't even take a hit on your electricity bill if you do all your charging in the city."

The rivers of Nicosia

Who said there are no rivers in Nicosia?

You only need not to have sewer system, horrible pavement, lots of cars and a Municipality who doesn’t care.

Lots of fun! You can even have your own swimming pool inside your house!
Do it yourself!

Compare must be made carefully; different histories, different cities…
