New paper out: The environmental bill of the top 10% of consumers is more than $1.7 to $5.7 trillion a year. "The top 10%" sounds like billionaires but it's essentially the middle class of the wealthy world & up: more than 60% live in the US & EU, 2% in India 🧵 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

‘Mega-consumers’ of food and energy cost environment $5.7tn a year, study finds

Top 10% generate climate and biodiversity damage bill that exceeds economies of most countries, say researchers
