My proposal for helping global warming/globalisation of governments

Well, like we don't want global warming , but we sertainhly don't want a lower standard of living either ........ intractable problem?
Countries do not want to help/pay more than others to help- and why should they ?

The link says that EU CO2 emissions due to the aviation sector are about 2% of total but that doesnt take NOx emissions into account which are much more 'warming' - so planes are contributing maybe 10% of the total and its growing fast even though fuel use technology is getting better all the time.

people are using flights more due to the cost - its really ridiculously cheap- you can travel 1000 miles for about £2 [$3] since the arrival of low cost airlines. Absolutely crazy prices - I go to Spain and places for almost nothing [if you ignore airport dues].

A simple way would be to tax kerosene. This is hard to do piecemeal country by country, but if we had a global agreement that kerosene was taxed at 10% [or whatever], then this would be easy to do.

This money then would create a global pool which could be earmarked for energy saving schemes throughout the world - say paying Brazil to keep some forests alive- I know it could be abused, but done correctly would give us a little of what we need - MONEY - to help fight this problem.- and obviously slow down the rate of increase in airline traffic a little.

Its such an obvious win/win situation that I commend it to the house . Even Dubyer might go for it as it wouldnt affect car fuel prices !
