Original Note:
90% of human population live in the northern hemisfere. It is not surprising that most of CO2 emissions come from the global North. https://www.toppr.com/guides/geography/our-changing-earth/northern-hemisphere-and-southern-hemisphere-an-overview/#:~:text=About%2090%20per%20cent%20of,the%20hemisphere%20of%20the%20north. The post is misleading as it states that is Europeans who must reduce emissions. EU is responsible for <10% of total emissions. https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php?title=Greenhouse_gas_emission_statistics_-_carbon_footprints#Global_CO.E2.82.82-emissions_.E2.80.93_EU_vis-.C3.A0-vis_the_rest_of_the_world
