Are EU and national policies enough to ensure that polluters bear the cost of #pollution?
We seek views to strengthen the 'polluter pays' principle to avoid citizens paying for environmental damage.

Not the slightest.
On the contrary, polluters including those emitting CO2, methane etc are giving an almost free pass.
This, BTW, includes everyone using fossil fuels for transport and non-renewable power for e-mobility.
This must change.
And one of the most pressing items is that the EU must tax kerosene.
@EU_Commission ...to avoid having nonpolluting citizens pay..
@EU_Commission No worries! I'll give my cousin a case of beer to not chop down his tree in his garden (this year anyway), so I'll be carbon neutral. And by the way, my cousin is not planning to chop the tree down anyway, but I think we are good, right?
