This simply isn’t correct. While the billionaires yacht fleet and jet setting make them have insane carbon footprints individually, it is their business practices that actually register in terms of contributing significant chunks of the carbon budget for humanity. Bezo’s jets and yachts pale in comparison to Amazons delivery fleet and manufacturing all that junk. It’s counterproductive to focus on their personal emissions, when it’s the interaction of their businesses, government, and consumers that are burning the earth. We have 2 levers on that problem.
You're right. I was thinking more about the individuals responsible capture and refining of fossil fuels.
But the pretty ubiquitous use of Amazon delivery does greatly contribute a lot. Didn't really think about it in that aspect. Thanks for pointing that out.
