Oxfam’s analysis of data from Polluterjet has revealed that 87 private jets, including one belonging to a Nigerian billionaire, have landed at Antalya Airport since November 7, emitting an estimated 777 tonnes of CO₂, equivalent to flying around the world more than three times.

One of the private jets belongs to Aliko Dangote, whose aircraft flew 4,370 kilometres from Lagos to Antalya and emitted an estimated 30 tonnes of CO₂, roughly equivalent to what an average person emits in six years.

In the wake of the latest emission data from private jets landing in Turkiye to attend the climate conference, Oxfam called on governments to tax private jets to address the aircraft’s carbon emissions.

The Global Solidarity Levies Task Force estimated that taxing private jets could raise about $45 billion annually, nearly 12 times what wealthy countries contributed to UN climate funds in 2025.

Oxfam International executive director Amitabh Behar said, “While families mourn loved ones killed by floods and endure blistering heat, the ultra-wealthy carry on flying in private jets, high above the devastating consequences. Governments must stop treating the extraordinarily polluting luxuries of the super-rich as an untouchable privilege. Taxing private jets is an obvious first step.”

Meanwhile, Oxfam’s latest report says about 8,000 people died in floods between January and September 2026, the highest toll for the same period since 2013. The report also reveals that 106 countries recorded monthly temperature records during the period.

Oxfam disclosed that around three-quarters of the flood-related deaths, amounting to 6,250 people, were recorded in Nepal, where flash flooding caused the highest number of flood-related deaths on record.

The report also found that flood deaths were seven times higher in more unequal countries.

Oxfam’s analysis indicated that the carbon pollution of a person in the wealthiest one per cent has contributed 34 times more to current extreme heatwaves than that of the average person and 100 times more than that of someone in the poorest 50 per cent.
