World's wealthiest 'at heart of climate problem

I've read an aricle in BBC called "World's wealthiest 'at heart of climate problem" by Roger Harrabin. It was about problem of carbon emission in the world, but mainly among wealthy people. The raport
from the UK-based Cambridge Sustainability Commission on Scaling Behaviour Change says that1% of wealhy people produce two times more carbon than 50% poor people. 

It's the global problem. One of solutions by the author is to deter frequent flying and the use of SUVs and to persuade the wealthy to insulate their homes well. He also said, that implementing new "clean" technologies, will be more successful, than implementing hefty penalties or lifestyle restrictions.

Wealthy people have completly different lifestyle, than poorer people. in my opinion it will be hard to change their everyday life, because they are accustomed to a good conditions in everything they have and they do. The problem can be solve only if they want to cooperate with others. In other case nothing can help.

    On top of that, rich people are often arrogant and act with impunity. They feel no one can tell them what to do. So the problem is real.

The largest airport in the world

  First we need to estabilish our criteria.  The largest airport in the world in terms of international passenger traffic is Dubai International Airport.  It is the seat of one of the world's most luxurious airlines - Emirates. Dedicated for use by this Airline, Terminal 3 increased Dubai International’s total capacity by 43 million passengers per year. The airport is not small in terms of the area either; it spreads over an area of 2,900 hectares. In total, it has 3 terminals, however Terminal 3 in Dubai International airport is the second-largest building in the world by floor space and the largest airport terminal in the world.

The largest and heaviest aircraft in the world

  The largest and heaviest aircraft in the world is the Antonov An-225 Marija.     It is a semi-engine transport machine that is currently in use.     It has only one copy, construction of a new one has not been completed since 1994.   It is able to take 250,000 kg.  It was constructed because the Russians wanted to create a new one that would also be able to transport other machines on its back.  It happened as early as 1989, when this person transported the Buran spacecraft.     After more than 10 years of grounding, the plane began to fly this year.    He even visited the Warsaw Chopin airport, providing, among other things, masks for the fight against the current Covid.
