Join the Aviation Fuel Tax Petition PDF Print E-mail
While car drivers pay duty on their petrol, airline companies pay no equivalent tax on their fuel.The number of commercial airlines in service around the world is surprisingly small, at around 26,000...

Let the Polluter Pay! – yet the air travel sector is alone responsible for 3% of global greenhouse emissions.

Join this petition to have duty charged on aviation fuel. Because the airline industry is so competitive, this tax will act as an incentive to inspire the rapid development and rollout of newer, more efficient engines and operations systems. It will also start sizeable and helpful contributions now towards a war chest for financing global warming management projects later.
