This is the aviation industry trying to cut the best deal they can to stave off the shakedown of their industry by governments and agencies that have demonstrated they can be bought off...which along with control is the goal of the whole effort. They are hoping by 2050, the whole fraud will be exposed and discredited with the statists moving onto another target to extract their tribute.

Unfortunately for the EU, these "misinformed individuals" described it exactly as it is: a carbon tax. The Russians, the Chinese, the Indians and the North Americans did not play nice with the EU bureaucrats and essentially shut down their plans. The Chinese went even further and stopped all purchases from AirBus sending a second message to the Europeans.

Now it just a matter of stalling the nonsense until a new target is found.
