The top 10% of the planet aren’t “the rich”, what a gross and incendiary misuse of the term.
If you live in better material conditions than 90% of the world population, you're rich, by definition. This is nearly half the global CO2 footprint.
What would _you_ call the top 10% richest people in the world? Middle upper, upper, upper, upper class?
The top 10% richest humans emit about half of all emissions.
Decile 10 (richest): ~48%
Decile 9: ~15%
Decile 8: ~10%
Decile 7: ~8%
Decile 6: ~6%
Deciles 1 through 5 combined: ~12%, so about 1 to 3% each
