North America and Europe have made the biggest contribution to the climate crisis.
1. Because
- they have produced by far the most carbon dioxide emissions since the industrial revolution (Scientists have just told us how to solve the climate crisis – will the world…)
- the average North American emits 16 tonnes of carbon dioxide each year from fossil fuel use, compared to just 2 tonnes for the average African (Scientists have just told us how to solve the climate crisis – will the world…)
- the climate crisis is driven by how the world’s wealthy – which includes much of the UK’s population – currently live, consume and invest (Scientists have just told us how to solve the climate crisis – will the world…)
