 Something positive you can do while we're still in the EU.  (or if you're German or Czech, while you remain in the EC)

The aviation tax exemption has bugged me, ever since I discovered the madness of it existing at all.

Carbon emissions from aviation are increasing every year, but aviation fuel is EXEMPT from tax. It's an agreement going way back when, and it needs to end.  You pay on petrol for your car, but aircraft pay nothing.  Go figure...
 

This EU Citizens Initiative asks to end the aviation fuel tax exemption in Europe, and needs 1 million signatures to be successful. Please sign the initiative here
