China could impound European planes in carbon row | Reuters

Chinese airlines, which have been told by Beijing not to comply with the EU's Emissions Trading Scheme, refused to meet a March 31 deadline for submitting carbon emissions data.

"Chinese airlines are unanimous on this. We won't provide the data," Wei Zhenzhong, secretary general of the China Air Transport Association, said on the sidelines of an International Air Transport Association (IATA) meeting in Beijing.

The EU plans to charge airlines a fee for their carbon emissions based on the quantity of carbon calculated for complete flights with an EU origin or destination, rather than just the portion flown over Europe.


Looks like China is not buying into this man-made global warming hoax and money scam. What exactly will be done with these fees coerced out of the airlines for carbon? Will they build giant green energy carbon scrubbers, to purge carbon from the atmosphere?

Hmmm, wow, that could be another great money making scam; start a company that makes carbon scrubbers, and get rich, rich, rich. ....I mean save the planet, save the planet, save the planet.
