A 20 euro tax per grilling session to help take care of global warming.

To save you time, by grilling, I do mean your typical backyard BBQ.

How are they gonna find you grilling? Well, flying around in helicopters with thermal imagers (...what mpg do they get again?)

Wow. Just... wow.

HA!

What a great idea.

Hmmm, I wonder how much greenhouse gases those 'choppers are putting out. Bet its more than a grill.

I just hope those Helicopters are electric. The Stupidity of some people!

I'm glad I wasn't the only one to pick out the foolishness.

They're going to look for grilling... by helicopter? What the ****?

"local media reported" - I have a feeling this is a April fool's joke from a Belgium news paper taken for real by a Russian news outlet. They can't be this stupid.

No, but it will soon be captured and a new government formed. It will then be known as Lazafornia.
