A new analysis released last week by the international non-profit InfluenceMap reveals an overwhelmingly unequal share of fossil fuel pollution worldwide. From 2016 to 2022, 80 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions were produced by just 57 companies.
And this is to the surprise of no one. They push the blame onto consumers so any decrease we make, they can use to increase their production.
I’m surprised the number is that low. I would have assumed it’d be hundreds, or even thousands of companies. The fact that it’s not even 60 companies is what is surprising.
Only 60 companies, but they have a wide reach.
