Global warming has now reached unprecedented levels, posing severe challenges to human survival and development. Previous research has shown that six of nine planetary boundaries have been exceeded, indicating that Earth is now well outside of the safe operating space for humanity. Against this backdrop, providing scientific, equitable, and practical approaches for calculating the carbon quotas and responsibilities of a country has become crucial to achieving the temperature goals of the Paris A
