ガーナの二酸化炭素排出規制

　ガソリン・ディーゼル車に税金をかけ、排出抑制を策する。
　…そりゃあまあ、使わざるを得ないものですから、確実な税収を齎す点では国に便利だが、やるまえに業界に一声かけて置け…という批判はある。輸送業者が反発しているそう。

BBC Ghana enforces controversial emissions levy 2 Feb 2024

　あとまあ、財政危機中でしたよねおたくさん。そりゃあ確実な税収は欲しかろうが、しかし経済危機でもあるわけで、経済鈍化も直撃しますが、ほんと大丈夫ですかガーナさん…。

「A fuel emissions levy has taken effect in Ghana, sparking mixed reactions.

The government now requires Ghanaians to pay an annual levy for the carbon emissions produced by their petrol or diesel-powered vehicles.

Several citizens are opposing the charge, which they see as an added burden amid an ongoing economic crisis.

But some leaders and environmental groups are endorsing it, saying it will cut the country's emissions and help raise more revenue for the government.」

「The union of commercial and public transport providers has also criticised the levy and said it was not consulted by the government.

The union now plans to hike transport charges by as much as 60% to reflect the added costs of the levy.」
