French Transport Minister Clement Beaune said he’s looking into a tax on flights by private jet or using other means to get companies and rich individuals to limit their use.
“I believe that at a national or European level, we could think about either taxation or regulation systems,” he said in a France 2 TV interview Thursday. “It’s clear that habits will have to change.”
