npub14mp99xv96gvty5lky8mnh74zf8ptuy6wkwc8vzkcvmyr6tp53r6qslzp26 (npub14mp…zp26) This is terrible. It's a horrible indictment of how we live.
The 1000 ton rule implies that three average EU citizens will between them kill two people to maintain their lifestyle. The average American will kill a bit more than one person in their lifetime and the average resident of Qatar will kill about three people in their lifetime.
Billionaires are of course the ultimate leaches and some of them have emissions which are high enough to kill others at the rate of dozens of people every year.
Killing dozens of people every year to maintain your own lifestyle is obviously not something that anyone should consider to be acceptable, but hundreds of millions of average people in rich countries each being responsible for about one other person's death is also not exactly innocent behaviour. We can't hide behind the worse crimes of others.
