In other words, if all the billionaires just ceased to exist, it would result in the humanity achieving the emission goals?

I mean, that's not strictly necessary either. Chinal allows a good many billionaires to exist, but they are hitting their emissions targets ahead of schedule, cause they don't let the billionaires run the entire show like they do in the USA.
