Making polluters pay for the climate disaster: Oxfam calls for 'systemic change' Two jets of billionaire Elon Musk – who is set to join the incoming Trump administration – jointly discharged as much CO2 in just 25 days as 834 years' worth of emissions generated by the average person.

The report says the carbon emissions of the world's richest 1 percent increase hunger, poverty and deaths.
