Studying, scientists at first time evaluated the influence of pure private wealth on extreme climatic wonders.

Since 1990, two -thirds of global warming have brought about 10% of the richest people in the world. This is stated in a study conducted by Sarah Shoengart from Zurich’s Federal Higher Technical School in Switzerland, Sciencealert reports.

Those with the study are mentioned that in the first instance established a connection between carbon following wealthy people and the true consequences of climate changes.

In particular, the richest 1% of people in the world have caused 26 times more than a -rus super -powerful heat waves and 17 times more drought in the Amazon region than the average resident of the planet. Carbon leaks by 10% of the richest citizens of the United States and China, together form nearly half of the world’s pollution, leading to a two -fold or three -fold increase in extreme temperature indicators.

The study is based on a combination of economic data and climatic simulations. Researchers also emphasized that leaks related to financial investments of wealthy individuals are less role in the role than personal consumption.

One of the co-author of the study, Karl-Friedrich Shlussner from the International Institute of Applied System Analysis in Austria, said effective climatic action was impossible without considering the responsibility of the richest. In his opinion, those who have the capital can be held responsible by progressive taxation of wealth and carbon -like investment.

Previous studies have shown that taxation of leaks related to properties is more fair than universal carbon taxes that do not eliminate defeat to low -inkome.

The study was published on May 7, 2025 in the Journal Nature Climate Change.

Reminding, earlier it was reported that due to global warming, more than 80% of coral reefs on Earth were under the risk of extinction.
