    Thats the trick ain’t it? This whole thing would fix itself if we would leave everything alone. We won’t.

        It’s not about the amount of people when the top 10 own like 40% of everything.

        But yeah, your sentence is still correct; the level of greed just comes from a tiny minority of people.

          It is about the amount of people, at this level of greed. Everyone wants a house in the suburbs.

            No, not everyone does.

            Besides, we could probably utilise a lot of area sustainably to increase suburbs, worldwide, if we didn’t live in this wageslave bullshit where only the top hogs all the money while not giving a fuck about sustainability or employee well being.

        Is inequality actually the problem when it comes to carbon? Just as a thought exercise, if everyone on earth, or even within each county, received an equal share of GDP, I suspect emissions may increase. You’d replace the private jets with more of everything else. Inequality is a major issue for a host of other reasons though, absolutely.
