DescriptionEnvironmental impact increases with proxy measures of human group fitness (this is a problem).jpg |
English: " Environmental impact increases with proxy measures of group fitness. (a) Across nations, per capita carbon emissions (2021 data: [127]) are strongly correlated with the Human Development Index (2020 data: [128]). Other measures of wellbeing could also be used. (b) Across large corporations, total carbon emissions (2019 data: [129]) are correlated with corporate revenue (2015 data: [130]). Data do not include scope 3 emissions from the supply chain. These correlations are at least partly causal because fossil fuel consumption remains the easiest way to increase energy consumption and immediate quality of life. These relationships suggest that both types of human group are probably experiencing group-level cultural selection for increased carbon emissions. To solve anthropogenic climate change, the direction of selection needs to be reversed." |
