Why would capital have anything to do with it?
A private jet that pollutes 1.2 metric ton for a flight where a regular diesel car would pollute 0.3 metric ton. Isn't going to be better just because the private jet costs 4 million while the car is only 30 thousands.
Pollution is pollution, doesn't matter how much it costs. The planet doesn't care. It will die anyway and take us with it.
So please, tell us why it is "obvious" to you.
