A new report claims that white people are to blame for climate change and other problems with the environment.

The New York Post reports a new report published in the Journal of Industrial Ecology claims that white populations are disproportionately contributing to climate change through their eating habits, which uses up more food — and emits more greenhouse gases — than the typical diets of black and Latino communities.

The study argues that the average diet of white people consists of foods that require more resources such as water, land, and energy to produce, therefore, it concludes, white people made the greatest overall contribution to climate change.
