@meso @chargrille this would not reduce the amount of CO2 emissions and might actually increase it. the relevant point is the amount and kind of stuff being produced, not how it is distributed. if the wealth of billionaires was redistributed it would just increase the emissions of everyone else. and it might actually increase net emissions because normal people are likely to spend their money on things like houses and cars that are resource intensive rather than extremely expensive but low-emission luxury goods
