Climate adviser racks up 40,000 air miles while backing tax on frequent flyers
April 21, 2025

Nigel Topping

A leading member of the Climate Change Committee has been accused of hypocrisy for his jet setting activities.

The Telegraph report:


A government climate adviser who backed a tax on frequent flyers racked up 40,000 air miles in a year by jetting to environmental conferences.

Nigel Topping is one of the six members of Ed Miliband’s climate change committee, which in February recommended that ministers consider a new “frequent flyer levy” to cut emissions from flights.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
