The richest one percent of humanity is responsible for more carbon emissions than the poorest 66 percent , a report says.
Oxfam report says while the wealthiest one percent tend to live climate-insulated, air-conditioned lives, their emissions are responsible for immense suffering.
Climate justice will be high on the agenda of this month ’s UN Cop28 climate summit in the United Arab Emirates .
Oxfam International’s interim executive director, Amitabh Behar , said: “Not taxing wealth allows the richest to rob from us, ruin our planet and renege on democracy. Taxing extreme wealth transforms our chances to tackle both inequality and the climate crisis. These are trillions of dollars at stake to invest in dynamic 21st-century green governments, but also to re-inject into our democracies.”.
