Id like lemmings take on how they would actually reduce emissions on a level that actually makes a difference (assuming we can still stop it, which is likely false by now, but let’s ignore that)
I dont think its as simple as “tax billionaires out of existence and ban jets, airplanes, and cars” because thats not realistic.
Bonus points if you can think of any solutions that dont disrupt the 99%'s way of life.
I know yall will have fun with this!
That 80% may care, especially since climate change will hit them the hardest, but there’s a lot less they can do to lower emmisions. Ask them to:
stop flying
stop driving
stop buying cheap plastic clothes, toys etc.
eat less meat
don’t use as much AC
They’ll just reply OK, already doing all that…
The richest 10% globally (~$50,000) account for half of carbon emmisions while the poorest half only account for 10%. The problem isn’t that the top 20% are the only ones who care, the problem is there lifestyle is disproportionately causing this.
