According to European experience in Australia, experiments were carried out to establish individual carbon quotas, and some of them were successful. But can an adequate rationing on this substance ever be established?

For such control, the CitiCap application was developed, which is funded by the European Urban Innovation Program, supporting projects on “new and unverified solutions” to pressing problems. For example, in the Finnish city of Lahti, this means a decrease in residents' travel by car and other similar vehicles.
While Finland plans to become carbon neutral by 2035, Lahti plans to achieve this a decade earlier. The city has already halved its carbon footprint since 1990, but much more work will be required to reach zero. Reducing transport is identified as a key part of this process.

Initially introduced in the UK
This is not the first time that politicians are trying to implement the idea of quotas for personal emissions. British politician David Miliband made this proposal in 2006 when he was the British Minister of the Environment, citing citizens' contributions to the fight against climate change.
But a subsequent investigation by the Department of Environment, Food, and Rural Affairs (Defra) revealed that each person’s carbon tracking scheme was too expensive, unproven, and lacked public support. The Department concluded that such rationing was "an idea ahead of its time." At the same time, the proposed quotas were no longer discussed.
Despite the fact that this did not become public policy in the UK, the idea captured the imagination of many people. Carbon Reduction Initiative Groups, or CRAGs, sprang up across the country, and people took control.
