Fri, 27 September 2002 08:32 I think that the platinum / palladium in the cats are one part of the car that is almost always recycled, so hopefully over many years the need for new mining is decreased. The most important and perhaps selfish reason for cats is that they reduce the pollution in your home town, but the mining roots up some African country (!!) - pollution shifting. I'd always run a cat because of the strict penalties ($1,000's ?) for polluting the environment (and also it seems the "green" thing to do). I plan to keep my car going for a long time to reduce the need for mining new metals for new cars. [Report message to a moderator]
