I propose an eco-tax for the first internal combustion passenger cars of €200 per year. Each subsequent vehicle would be taxed at twice the first. Anyone commuting less than 3km in a private car in an urban area should pay an eco-tax of €100 per year.

The idea is to rapidly reduce the number of internal combustion vehicles, reduce the number of vehicles owned by people, and use other means of transport for short distances. Commercial vehicles are exempted. Unfortunately, the fastest way to achieve results is with money. Many campaigns have already been carried out to change mindsets, but there is no effect. I therefore propose a contribution to the tax coffers.

There are many exceptions to this proposal to consider - that is why you are here to suggest improvements.

I know that many will spit on the proposal without thinking whether it is good policy, but let them sleep on it and think about the long-term effects of this Eco-Law.
