Every adult in Britain should be forced to carry 'Carbon Ration Cards'

Every adult should be forced to use a 'carbon ration card' when they pay for petrol, airline tickets or household energy, MPs say.

The influential Environmental Audit Committee says a personal carbon trading scheme is the best and fairest way of cutting Britain's CO2 emissions without penalising the poor.

Under the scheme, everyone would be given an annual carbon allowance to use when buying oil, gas, electricity and flights.

Anyone who exceeds their entitlement would have to buy top-up credits from individuals who haven't used up their allowance. The amount paid would be driven by market forces and the deal done through a specialist company.

One step closer to communism? Pretty soon everyone will be on public transportation hanging off the sides of the trains lol.. Seriously if this happens its just another way to tax people, with the way prices are going people will not afford to spend anything on luxury items.
