Different principles of fairness will generate different emission distributions for each population and different “carbon Gini coefficients.” By using the 1850-2050 timespan to calculate the carbon Gini coefficient, we can analyze the principle of historical accountability, advocated by countries like China, India, and Brazil, which takes into account past emissions that have had an impact on the atmosphere.
Les différences en termes de principes d’équité généreront différentes répartitions des émissions pour chaque population, et différents « coefficients carbone de Gini. »
