    Okay

    roughly 447 times the entire annual carbon footprint of your average American

    So now back to my question does the number average Americans outnumber the billionare more than 447 times?

    There are 333,300,000 people in America so that means there needs to be more than 745,637 billionaires living in America for billionaire yatchs to to more damage than the average person. There are only 756.

    So the claim is wrong. People don’t like it but average people in the world do more damage to the environment than billionaires. People have no interest in changing but if they want to save the world they must change.

    This deflection is not helpful.
