Airline passengers now pay more in green taxes than is
needed to cover the cost of environmental damage they cause, the

The disclosure emerged in the Emissions Cost Assessment which was quietly released before MPs departed for the summer recess.
According

environmental costs a year as a result of the doubling of Air Passenger
Duty in February last year.
