Climate change: The rich are to blame, international study finds
The rich gobble resources.
LIFTING ALL BOATS HAS ALWAYS BEEN A WESTERN LIBERAL MIRAGE
The researchers found that the richer people became, the more energy they typically use. And it was replicated across all countries.
And they warn that, unless there's a significant policy change, household energy consumption could double from 2011 levels by 2050. That's even if energy efficiency improves.
Co-author Professor Julia Steinberger, leader of the project at Leeds, asked:
“How can we change the vastly unequal distribution of energy to provide a decent life for everyone while protecting the climate and ecosystems?”
YOU CAN'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO THAT, EVER!
