    What did France do? We did the convention citoyenne pour le climat in 2019, but the government ditched all the 149 ideas, like banning ads for SUV. So no, France didnt do enough…

      France taxes automobiles in a way that substantially discourages the largest and most polluting ones. Corresponding taxes in the UK are much lower.

        Germany does the same. You think you only have to pay a teeny tiny bit of tax and WHAMMO, added CO2 emissions surcharge.

        And still far too many people drive compensation vehicles.

          It is a weight tax that start around 1700kg if i recall. Just enough that anything bigger than “french sized” SUV has to pay a tax in addition to the CO2 tax.
