According to a study released by the Climate Change Committee, a
Briton making just under $100,000 per year will fly an average of four
times per year, while a person earning a little over $30,000 will fly
just twice. "If you leave it entirely to a price regime, then people
will be able to fly if they can afford it," Lord Turner (pictured)
said. "We will have to see what our policy responses are and to
examine whether we could increase the marginal cost of flying beyond
two to three flights a year. I think there is a whole range of ideas
people have floated. Could you have a tax which allows you to have a
certain number of flights?"
