England to pay taxes to compensate developing countries


Tens of billions of pounds will have to be raised through flight taxes to compensate developing countries for the damage air travel does to the environment, according to the Government’s advisory body on climate change.

Ticket prices should rise steadily over time to deter air travel and ensure that carbon dioxide emissions from aviation fall back to 2005 levels, the Committee on Climate Change says. It believes that airlines should be forced to share the burden of meeting Britain’s commitment to an 80 per cent cut in emissions by 2050.


Now, if the English folks who believe this shit had to pay a tax on stupid to us smart people who understand they are peddling a hoax.....well, my friends and I would all be rich.

Instead we have to double our BP medicine dose after reading such nonsense from a country that use to be a beacon of reason and hope to the world.
