Poll: Is An Eco-Tax On Domestic Flights A Good Way To Reduce The Aviation Sector's Carbon Footprint?

In July last year, France announced plans to introduce an “eco-tax” on flights departing from French airports from 2020, sparking criticism from Air France and the French airport industry.
The move comes at a time when aviation’s contribution to climate change is in the spotlight across Europe.
Transport minister Borne said the tax would be calculated progressively, starting at a €1.50 ($1.68) contribution per flight on an internal or intra-European service and rising to as much as €18 on a business class seat to a non-EU destination.
However, is an eco-tax on domestic flights a good way to reduce the aviation sector's carbon footprint? Vote below to have your say.
