They are italicized in the biggest banks in the country – the same in emission statistics.

We are of course talking about the richest man in Norway. Who has so much money that you can only dream of it, and who can afford to charter their own private plane when they want to get out into the world. Even if you have to cancel your vacation because of the air raid, it doesn’t matter to them.

– Lost more than 60,000

The availability of planes this summer is a tale of a huge difference: between those who can afford it and those who can’t. At the very least, it enters into the eternal discussion that the green shift should be fair.

Avisa Vårt Land has mapped climate emissions from some jet setters, such as Petter Stordalen. Avisa says that there are 683 private jets registered in Norway, and shows how climate accounts for the richest don’t meet global climate threats.

The richest country emits 16 times more than half the population with the worst advice. Per head, mind you.

Therefore, there is no doubt that extensive private air traffic was undesirable, and should definitely be taxed much heavier than it is today. But pretending that it is one of Norway’s main climate problems is reindeer populism.

Red will ban all Sulamit by private jet. This may be understandable from the party’s Marxist ideological base, but as an important climate measure, it does not mean much.

In constant passion for so-called fairer environmental policies, Rødt turns to symbolic ineffective policies, where what matters most is that it affects the rich, not how much emissions we cut.

These days, it’s not just private plane owners chasing Rødt; also people with Jacuzzi and big cabin have to pay more for their consumption.

The proposal itself might make sensebut they have to stop pretending that the climate provides excellent service.

In fact, on the other hand, we should all reduce our consumption of fossil fuels. Even though the number of billionaires is growing in Norway, ordinary people’s consumption is still the biggest problem.

If tougher measures against the greenhouse gas emissions of the rich create greater acceptance among ordinary people for green change, then that’s okay. But making gasoline and electricity cheaper for the average person, as Rødt suggests, at the same time as banning private jets and imposing high taxes on jacuzzis – makes no sense to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Norway. In the worst case, they will increase. Emissions must come down, from the poor and from the rich.
