45% of French favor ecological tax



Nearly one in two French (45%) believes it is necessary to tax products with a negative impact on the environment, according to a Eurobarometer survey published this week. In return, they want green products to be tax-advantaged. Overall, the principle of a product tax with a negative impact on the environment is supported by 46% of Europeans surveyed, provided that green products are, at the same time, reduced in weight. This idea is welcomed more favorably in the United Kingdom (65%) or Denmark (56%) than in Portugal or Italy (34%).

In full debate on the carbon tax, the French are 45% to approve the idea of ​​a tax on products harmful to the environment, while applying a tax advantageous on ecological products. 32% only want a lower tax on green products, and 18% are in favor of a single tax on pollutants.

In addition, 83% of Europeans surveyed say that the environmental impact of products has an important or very important role in their purchasing decision. This proportion reaches 92% in Greece, 87% in France, but is limited to only 62% in the Czech Republic. This survey was conducted between the 21 and the 25 April 2009 from 26.500 citizens of 27 EU countries, aged 15 years old and up.

This thing feels the manipulation merdiatique full nose!

This is NOT about the CARBON tax!

But a possible eco tax ...

In addition I am hyper septic by reading this:

Otherwise, 83% of Europeans surveyed say that the environmental impact of products has an important or very important role in their purchasing decision. This proportion reaches 92% in Greece, 87% in France, but is limited to only 62% in the Czech Republic.


To open his mouth during a survey is one thing, to practice is more difficult ... always the difference between theory and practice.

Sorry but I have a hard time believing that 87% of french people consume durably ... just have to consider the turnover of some shops ...

Even I, who have always spoken for tax C here, do not believe it.

Should see the question, first ...

And then indeed, from intention to action, there is room ... But if at least for "intentions" it was true, that would be great ...
