Right. There’s no reason why private jets shouldn’t be paying to offset 100% of their emissions. For cars it’s a different story because it’s a tax on the poor for something they need. Private jets are purely luxuries, only used by the wealthy, and have a viable alternative.
Carbon tax. We needed it 20 years ago but even more now. Ironically a Republican idea that has been ignored for years.

Maybe a dumb question, but how does providing money actually offset emissions? Are there emission vacuums somewhere that require payment to operate?

Nope, fuck cars. Tax carbon, give free public bus passes. Easy.
