Following the revelations about Dieselgate of exposure to the exhaust gases of ten macaques for FOUR HOURS, we ask the CEOs of the automotive industry to immediately stop the use of any animal in the automotive industry for any test whatsoever (research programs for less polluting cars, for new fuels, etc.). 
“Forcibly inhaling gas into ten monkeys to prove that most of the toxic emissions are no longer there is just as disgusting as it is absurd. “
Stephan Weil, Minister-President of Lower Saxony
Public apologies from Volkswagen, BMW and Daimler are not enough, all car companies must commit themselves now to no longer use animal testing.
