annote={Quote: "We find significant and growing emissions inequality that cuts across economic and racial lines. In 2019, fully 40\% of total U.S. emissions were associated with income flows to the highest earning 10\% of households. Among the highest earning 1\% of households (whose income is linked to 15--17\% of national emissions) investment holdings account for 38--43\% of their emissions."  There are wealthy super-emitters who manage put out as much in 15 days as the bottom 10\% of the population does in their entire lifetime.},
