brutal indictment of consumerism
In what way?
"Living standards" are carbon-intensive given the technology available to us. If you had a more equal income distribution this would be worse, no, as low/middle income ppl spend more of their income?

Not sure about that. Seems to show wealthier people travel more.
I’d guess this is strongly linked to work and presumably there is a physical space element to the energy used equation, further amplifying this. -
Yep, bigger cars, houses and they probably swimming pools.....

Its a brutal indictment of consumerism is what it is. The more money you have, the more you spend, the bigger your impact.
