This argument is used in the debate Are Air Quotas a good way to reduce air traffic?.
This argument is an objection to Air Quotas restrict freedom to travel.
Summary
The Air quotas mechanism only covers aviation emissions and does not allow trade-offs between flying and other carbon emitting products or services. If it were integrated into a general carbon accounting system covering all products and services (which is the long-term goal), there would be greater freedom to travel for those who prefer to limit their car usage or their consumption of clothes and meat.
