The EU parliament agreed to mitigate climatic obligations for automobile companies. New cars can be responsible for the climate a few years longer than planned. This can lead to another 50 million tons of CO2. Environmental associations are also afraid that automakers can now slow down in electric cars and rely on burning longer.

A new study shows that thanks to their emissions of greenhouse gases, rich people disproportionately contributed to extreme climatic events. Of the 0.61 degrees Celsius of global warming, which was registered in 30 years between 1990 and 2020, two -thirds of the richest ten percent of humanity will go to the account. You have contributed to an increase in pure heat by seven times more than on average, the richest one percent even 26 times. Progressive taxes on wealth can help.
