I entirely agree that gas and coal (and to a lesser degree, electricity) should also be taxed. They already are, by the way, to a lower degree. As is mineral oil for heating, see here and here.
So your statement
But the real issue are not gas taxes. The real issue is the lack of taxes on oil consumption outside the traffic sector.
It is most wrong because these are all real issues. And the 'ecological movement' is addressing all of these issues. At least the weatherisation of homes is something I hear about a lot, even from the current German government.
