I don’t think ownership was the point of the comment you replied to. I think the point was either taxing or eating the rich.
I mean true enough, but unless those taxes are then used to combat climate change it won’t accomplish much (and even then climate change isn’t the kind of problem that goes away if you throw money at it). What I’m trying to say is: We should be taking rich people’s money, but there’s not much relation between rich people being rich and climate change.
There actually is; the wealthiest are responsible for a wildly disproportionate share of emissions.
Oh that’s a good point. I don’t think that’s what they were talking about, but yeah you got me there.
