And this is why one must be eternally vigilant of totalitarian leftist posing as those with rational concerns such as health or environmentalism. This is the result.
The Guardian:
An elderly woman was ordered to find a new GP because the “carbon footprint” of her two-mile round trips to the surgery where she had been treated for 30 years was too large.

Avril Mulcahy, 83, was told to address the “green travelling issues” over her journeys from her home in Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, to the West Road Surgery. The surgery wrote to Mrs Mulcahy, telling her to register with a new GP within 28 days.
The letter said: “Our greatest concern is for your health and convenience but also taking into consideration green travelling issues. Re: Carbon footprints and winter weather conditions, we feel it would be advisable for patients to register at surgeries nearer to where they live.
“We would be very grateful if you could make the necessary arrangements to re-register at another practice.”
Mrs Mulcahy, a grandmother, believes the decision was made because she complained about a doctor.

The public has been so thoroughly brainwashed by the BBC, MSM, and politicians, that it is now possible for such idiotic incidents to happen.
Idiocy knows no bounds.
This is one of the stupidest things I have ever heard.
