MCFly 029- Green Scheme leads to MORE emissions!

July 13 A Berlin brothel has created a discount scheme for "green" punters, as a way of swelling profits during the recession. Thomas Goetz, owner of the "Maison d'envie," told Reuters news agency that "customers who arrive on bicycle or who can prove they took public transportation get a 5-euro ($7) discount from the usual 70-euro ($100) fee for 45 minute sessions." The scheme is working. "We have around 3-5 new customers coming in daily to take advantage of the discount," he said, adding the green rebate has helped alleviate traffic and parking congestion in the neighborhood.

MCFly can think of several reasons "why not in Manchester."
