Second, Chinese growth will fall under either
scenario.
In the first scenario, China becomes caught in a middle-income trap, with per capita GDP stuck at 30% of America’s – an outcome that has characterized Latin America’s five largest economies since at least 1960, and Malaysia since 1994.
In the second, more favorable scenario, China’s per capita GDP would reach 80% of America’s – higher than the 70% average rate for the five largest Western European countries since 1960 – and its economic strength relative to the US would amount to roughly 2.8.
And, because Puerto Rico is not in any ordinary recession, it is not enough (or even appropriate) to analyze what to expect in the best-case

By contrast, European authorities refuse to test the
scenario
that the market currently fears most: losses on loans to banks and governments on Europe’s periphery.

The Reference
Scenario
– in which no new policies are introduced – in the International Energy Agency’s 2008 World Energy Outlook sees annual global primary energy demand growing 1.6% on average up to 2030, from 11,730 million tons of oil equivalent (Mtoe) to just over 17,010 Mtoe – an increase of 45% in just over 20 years.
In the 550 scenario, energy demand up to 2030 rises by about 32%, with the share of fossil fuels falling markedly, and average demand up 1.2% yearly, compared to 1.6% in the Reference
Scenario.
The 450
scenario
presents an immense challenge.
The 2030 emissions level for the entire world would be less than the emissions projected for non-OECD countries alone in the Reference
Scenario.
In the 450 scenario, renewables comprise 30% of the EU power-generation mix in 2030, up sharply from 10% today.
The US banks most likely to be affected by such a
scenario
would be the globalists: Citigroup, Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley.

scenario
appeared high.

scenario
is political violence within a small, low-income, low-growth nation burdened with strong ethnic divisions.
While there is upside potential in this scenario, depending on more rapid cost reductions in green energy, the world is still years away from negative growth in carbon dioxide emissions.
Yet the baseline
scenario
in the short run seems to be one of continuity.
There is a strong chance that the Brexit negotiations will not be completed by the deadline, leading to a “no deal”
