Oxfam found that a billionaire emits a million times more carbon than the average person, and their superyachts and private jets make the math grotesque. Oxfam on billionaire carbon emissions. One person flying private can emit more in a year than a village does in a decade. We lecture ordinary people about plastic straws and gas stoves while a few thousand people treat the atmosphere as a personal playground. If the climate crisis demands sacrifice from everyone, the people emitting at a million times the rate should be first in line, starting with the fortunes that fund the emissions.
