It is't Government that is getting the money. Land Rover donate the money to Climate care. hey then invest it into project around the world to reduce CO2. It shows on the invoice and order form etc that you are paying for it, but all the prices you will of seen the whole way through considering the order will of had it included.
They also pay an amount of money to CC to ofset the factorys emmisions.
Think of it as the way Land Rover can still produce a 5.0 supercharged car instead of building things like the Aston Martin Cygnet.
