@jwildeboer i think the thought behind it is to make CO2 rich options less attractive.

@blacklight447 But how does that work? The negative view is IMHO "Those that can afford it get to pay for offsetting a bit of CO2 while the {airline, etc} saves money by continuing to use their CO2 emmitting tech longer." By putting the burden on the customer, the incentives are all wrong IMHO.

@jwildeboer oh im not saying i agree with it, but i think thats the thought behind it.
