Europe mulls suspending airline emissions charge
European officials signaled Tuesday that they may recommend the suspension of the continent's carbon emission fees for airlines to avert a trade war with major economic powers such as China and the United States, allowing time to forge a global agreement on climate charges for the aviation industry.

Reality check...hahaha
The whole green tax thing is a ton of bullplop. I bet if they disbanded the whole EU central administration, the number of rainforests needed to be chopped down to fuel that insatiable red tape machine would be vastly reduced. Not to mention the reduction in hot air emissions from all that double talk.
I just flew into heathrow and if they really want to improve emissions they would build a third runway I have yet to come arcoss a time when we were not held up for al least 30 mins in the air. Rather than cap and trade/charge how about efficient skies!
Isn't that the truth for any 'green' tax throughout the world. Do you authorities still believe we believe they are doing good things with our green tax money. It is just another tax revenue stream.
I guess going green is costing them more than they can afford. As the saying goes; "Money Talks." As can be seen by the article money is definitely talking if not shouting at the EU over this Carbon Tax.
"Money talks and BS walks" is right. Looks like the BS is about to walk.
