A carbon passport, as envisioned by Intrepid Travel, would be a passport that assigns each traveller an annual carbon footprint, which they cannot surpass.
The report, created in collaboration with foresight agency The Future Laboratory, explained: “These allowances will manifest as passports that force people to ration their carbon in line with the global carbon budget, which is 750 billion tonnes until 2050.
“By 2040, we can expect to see limitations imposed on the amount of travel that is permitted each year.”
They added: “By 2040, it will be unusual to see members of Generation Alpha without a carbon-footprint tracker on their smartphones. Every Uber ride, plane journey, and trip to the supermarket will be logged in their devices, noting their carbon footprint in real time.”

Surely this is just a troll?
More rules for thee but not for me from global elite.
Air travel is tiny in the global perspective.
Anything to distract from the fact the elites are sending unfathomable tonnage of products by sea and air freight causing unbelievable amounts of polution.
The average Aussie weight like 85kg which is nothing in the grand scheme of carbon cost to move for air travel.
