1 American releases the same amount of co2 as ten people in Benin, let alone the amount of trash and general consumption
This is not about the "amount of people" , it is about percapita numbers and consumption
If everyone consumed like Americans do, we'd need like 4, 5 earth's just to maintain that
Again, it is a matter of co2/per capita
- syops 5y agoPoverty is on the decline globally and this means consumption correspondingly increases. People in Benin and elsewhere have the same desires as everyone else and they too want to consume at a greater rate. They want things too. Americans are the worst for sure. I think that there are far too many people given humans’ proclivity toward consumption.
