China is definitely loving all of this. Please choke off your industries, lower the manufacturing output, or better yet, send ALL manufacturing to us in China, as you have done over the decades. We will build out cities (more than 50 in fact) to put our large 1.3 Billion population of hard working people to work, keep growing our economy and then take over the world before this century runs out.... Your people in the US can keep sitting on the couches and collect the stimmies...
HONG KONG: China will create millionaires at a quicker pace than the United States in the five years through 2025, as a rapid recovery from the world's worst public-health crisis in a century helps corporate chieftains generate and accumulate wealth faster, according to the 12th Global Wealth Report by Credit Suisse.
The number of US dollar millionaires in China will increase by 92.7% to 10.17 million by 2025, compared with a 27.8% rise in the US to 28.06 million US dollar millionaires over the same period, according to a projection by the Swiss lender.
"The rise of China's wealth between 2000 and 2020 is almost equal to the 80 years of growth of wealth in the US from 1925 until 2005," Anthony Shorrocks, an economist and the report's author, said in a video conference on Tuesday. "We are expecting very solid growth in wealth in the years ahead, in both China and India."
China will create millionaires over 3 times faster than US in 5 years

The most part of these gases comes from the use of fossil fuels, the generation of energy through non-renewable channels and polluting human activities.
The last report of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) pointed out that during the last year recorded (2018), the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere broke all records in the history of humanity. Specifically, the concentration reached 407.8 parts per million (ppm) in 2018, which represents almost a 47% higher level than the pre-industrial period, before 1750.
