International aviation is neither subject to Kyoto or other commitments nor to fuel tax or VAT. In a report adopted by 439 votes in favour to 74 against and 102 abstentions, MEPs in the European Parliament propose the EU takes a leadership position in global aviation in order to reduce the climate change impact of aviation. Parliament advocates an aviation scheme as well as its inclusion in the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS).
