Who is driving climate breakdown? Buckle up for some striking data... 🧵
1. First, global North countries are responsible for 86% of cumulative emissions in excess of the safe planetary boundary.
China is responsible for 1%. The rest of the South and peripheral Europe is responsible for 13%.
These results arise from taking the safe carbon budget and dividing into national "fair shares" on a per-capita basis, and then assessing national emissions against national fair-shares.
Well this is brilliant.
Kudos to @SomersetCouncil , and huge admiration to all those who made it happen @MaydaySaxonvale

Delighted to be part of this Local News Commission.
In a world of huge crises, we need news and information that is plural and independent. Too much of our news is dominated by big players with vested interests. That is not good for democracy.
