The article is of good quality and addresses a very interesting and urgent topic of current debate. The work is supported by prestigious authors from renowned institutions such as the University of Oxford.
It aligns with recent evidence on i) the vast global inequalities in emissions and environmental damage, as well as ii) the unequal impacts of climate change. Therefore, the novelty of the article lies not so much in highlighting the inequalities as in estimating the costs.
[Regarding potential limitations] The article makes estimates, and these should therefore be interpreted with caution. All monetary estimates are subject to error.
