What do we make of it? China is no longer the engine of global inequality reduction b/c it has become too rich for that role. For lower inequality and convergence of incomes between world citizens, the world now depends on high growth rates of India and populous African countries.

NEW EPISODE OUT NOW! In today’s episode David explores the trial that gripped China at the end of 1980: the case against the three men and one woman accused of being responsible for the worst excesses of the Cultural Revolution (1966-76). Find us at...🎧 ppfideas.com

Ya tardábamos.

El programa de hui és un poc especial, és un tema que ens toca. Fa un any aprox vam introduir la idea de dissenyar un 'sistema a prova de tontos' que funcionara en cas d'emergència fins i tot quan ens governen inútils. Parlem de la maduració d'eixa proposta: greuges.ghost.io/guardians-de...

The same document also reveals that Trump wants no European country at the big boys table he calls c5: US, Russia, China, India, Japan. Sorry Telegraph. This isn’t about making Europe great. /1

China's official news agency Xinhua puts the country's coal peak at "around 2027" and oil peak "around 2026", also referencing the commitment to "gradually reduce" coal consumption that has been missing from recent policy papers.

If CO2 emissions go to zero in 2050 (top), the sinks (green) will bring atmospheric CO2 back down (middle), & temperature will stabalise at ~1.7°C (bottom). Going to zero today will keep us <1.5°C Constant emissions leads to 2.6°C, rising rapidly thereafter. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Va del Reino Unido y la próxima victoria de Farage, pero también de Europa, Trump, EEUU y el mundo si piensas como yo que desde 2008 la gran demanda del electorado (insatisfecha) a izquierda, centro y derecha es cambiar un sistema que tiene pánico a renovarse. www.ppfideas.com/episodes/fix...

1/10 While I agree with much of what Stephen Bush argues here, I think this claim is overly simplistic: "This shouldn’t need saying in 2025 but markets and globalisation are good." www.ft.com/content/2fa3...

1/10 I just finished reading Sven Beckert's history of the development of the global cotton industry. It's a bit repetitive in its main theses, and sometimes a bit of a slog, but well worth reading for those interested in the history of trade and industrial policy.

NEW STUDY: How much CO2 can we safely store in geological formations? In a new @nature.com study, we cross-check established academic and industry estimates with various risk factors. We find a prudent geological CO2 storage limit that is about 10x smaller. /1
