Europe’s Elite Emit More Carbon in a Week than Someone from the Bottom Half Does in a Year | Oxfam International

  • A person from Europe’s richest 0.1% emits 53x more carbon than a person from the bottom 50%.

  • Since 1990, Europe’s richest 0.1% have increased their share of total emissions by 14%, while the bottom half have cut their share by 27%.

  • To stay within the 1.5°C limit, the richest 0.1% of Europeans would need to cut their per capita emissions by 99% by 2030.

Europe’s wealthiest are driving the bloc’s emissions while ordinary Europeans make the steepest cuts, according to new Oxfam research published ahead of COP30. This research also comes amidst the EU watering down its own climate ambition.

#Oxfam hat seinen Bericht zur sozialen #Ungleichheit veröffentlicht. Leider wenig überraschend: Reiche werden immer reicher. Arme werden immer ärmer.

Kriege und gewaltsame Konflikte verstärken diesen Trend immens! Umso wichtiger, dass #Deutschland weiter in #Entwicklungszusammenarbeit, in zivile #Krisenprävention, #Konfliktbearbeitung und #Friedensförderung investiert, anstatt - wie geplant - die Mittel zu kürzen!

Deutschlands zivile #Friedensfähigkeiten stärken - dafür setzen wir uns weiterhin ein! #oxfamreport #oxfambericht #friedenstarkmachen #ZivilerFriedensdienst #ZFD

Oxfam report describes Israel’s onslaught on Gaza as “deadliest conflict of the 21st century”

The intensity of the Zionist regime’s bombardment has claimed the lives of Palestinians at a pace many times higher than NATO’s war on Russia in Ukraine, the Syrian civil war, the US-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and wars in Sudan and Yemen.

Immer weniger Sterne zu sehen - Lichtverschmutzung steigt

Am Nachthimmel sind immer weniger Sterne zu sehen. Grund dafür ist die Lichtverschmutzung, die laut einer Studie viel stärker zunimmt als bisher angenommen.

Thanks mostly to the Tory's reverse Robin Hood policies, the richest 1% of Britons now hold more wealth than 70% of Britons.

The extreme wealth of the super rich is paid for by taking more from the poorest and pushing more people into extreme poverty.

It's time to properly tax the extremely wealthy.
