Add the 1.5 degrees C global carbon budget as a horizontal line?
What I don’t understand: Why is the average for North America so far down and left, if 380m people are above it and only 130m below? Did you maybe calculate the average by adding up the countries‘ values without weighing them by population?
According to my calculation, the arrow point for North America should be at $46k / 12.5t
It’s much easier to reduce carbon emissions when you were producing a fuck ton earlier.
Just like developing countries have higher growth because they had low per capita productivity earlier and there is room to grow.
