Here's a free idea:

No refuelling private jets. ✈️

No matter what price they can afford.

Should be an obvious step 0 in a fuel crisis.
But we wouldn't ever do anything to inconvenience the ultra rich, would we?

@pezmico I was in favour of letting them take off then shooting them down, but the current war has educated me on how expensive SAMs are, so I'll go with your idea

@pezmico better yet, just tax key fuel for any turbine aircraft holding 12 seats or less. Tax at 200%

@DoctorDNS they can pay those, they stole enough money for it. Zero fuel for them, let them walk/swim to their destinations. @pezmico

@pezmico

No refuelling private jets. ✈️

Agree

No refuelling Ministerial and company vehicles would be even better.

The rich and priveliged are laughing while those who have to work, poor and Pensioners suffer.

@pezmico dinosaur juice lobby nepo baby would be fuming how unfair that is... But somehow it's fair in her view if you're poor and can't afford to fill up the car even to go to work...

@pezmico

We SHOULD be banning
Fueling Private Jets, Boats, and Cars unless public transport isn't great in your area.

Unfortunately that would mean 95% of NZ wouldn't have fueling of cars banned

Spend three hours waiting in line at the jet fuel station and you get to the pump and your license plate has the wrong odd/even number.

@pezmico Sounds great. I am with you.

Except: define "private jet".

Those use their corporate jets instead. Execution would not be as easy as we might wish.

@pezmico What if people were given CO2 emission limits by dividing country allowance amongst citizens?
no emission allowance for the corporations, equal allowance regardless of wealth... want to spend it - need to have it. Want your country to have bigger allowance, you need better nature and CO2 capture that actually works.

@pezmico you'd need to open additional account for your carbon dollars and settle the transactions that have carbon compound with it
Show threadMinmiTheDino2h ago
@pezmico yachts too. You should have to be under a certain maximum of fuel per person-km before you get to be refueled.

@pezmico @blogdiva it's actually very very easy to get an airport shut down for "security concerns". Something to think about.
