Higher Flight Costs Coming in Germany to Curb Emissions
Higher Flight Costs
Coming in Germany to Curb Emissions
Germany’s main political parties are
coalescing around proposals to increase the cost of flying, potentially
doubling the tax on short-haul flights to slash greenhouse gas pollution.
Alarmed that the country is falling
short of emissions-reductions pledges it made under the Paris Agreement on
climate change, Chancellor Angela Merkel’s Christian Democrats are drawing up
policies with their Social Democrat coalition partners and focusing on air
transport for some of the most dramatic reductions.
A proposal by Merkel’s CDU to double
levies on domestic flights was announced by the party’s finance expert, Andreas
Jung, in a press conference in Berlin. They’re part of a broader package that
ministers are due to consider at a Sept. 20 meeting of Merkel’s cabinet meeting
dealing with climate policies.
