I became a climate scientist when I learned that climate change affects us all, but not equally.

Those who've done the least to cause it bear the brunt of the impacts and that's not fair.

We can innovate away carbon; but if we don’t build a better world for everyone, we haven't solved the problem.

This led @oxfamgb.bsky.social to start calculating individual emissions by socioeconomic status.

Accounting for both personal footprint as well as the impact of personal investments in energy & extractive industries, they first found the richest 10% were responsible for half of global emissions.
