    Once again they are so close yet so far from a solution : Just reverse the taxation schemes on planes and trains.

    In France at least, airplane fuel isn’t taxed, electricity is. Train ticket have 20% sales tax, airplane tickets don’t. Just reverse that and see how that changes things.

      Yeah, they are just trying to solve the symptoms instead of tackling the source.
