Every single one of us is to blame for the state of the world.

yes, but to astronomically variable degrees.

Thank you for being realistic. Many people hear "blame" and immediately think in binary "I'm completely to blame".

So I take 1/8000000000 th part of the blame.

I think you might be letting the dead off too easy just using the current population. You think we all just fell out of a coconut tree?

If you're living in a Western country, odds are your consumption is double or triple of somebody in the global south, so you can up that a little. If you're wealthier, you can up that even more. It's not directly proportional to consumption, but that does play a bigger role.
