Climate Change is a monumental problem that needs addressing. By adding a small tax onto the price of carbon allows people to be more mindful of how freely they use appliances that include the use of carbon

Additional Information

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you want to see new taxes on appliances that contribute to carbon emissions, but we're not sure if you want these to be applied based on the carbon cost of manufacturing appliances, or the carbon cost of using appliances.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
