Description
<html> <head> <title></title> </head> <body> <p>Ahead of the major international climate conference COP30 in Belem, Brazil, new Oxfam research finds that the high-carbon lifestyles of the super-rich are blowing through the world&#8217;s remaining carbon budget -&#160;the amount of CO2 that can be emitted&#160;while&#160;avoiding climate disaster. The research also details how billionaires are using their political and economic influence to keep humanity hooked on fossil fuels to maximize their private profit.</p> <p>The report,&#160;<i>Climate Plunder: How a powerful few are locking the world into disaster</i>, presents extensive new updated data and analysis which finds that a person from the richest 0.1% produces more carbon pollution in a day than the poorest 50% emit all year. If everyone emitted like the richest 0.1%, the carbon budget would be used up in less than 3 weeks.</p> <ul> </ul> </body> </html>
