Nice work James. Jus add this to the pile of evidence: Global poverty is on the decline, despite what the media would have you believe. More people are living better than at any time in human history.
This comes via trade and economic openness. Hence the risk in backsliding when politicians and pundits turn us against the very factors of our own success.
Huh. I knew that since the 90s inequality within nations rose as inequality between fell drastically, resulting in lower global inequality. I am surprised to see inequality within nations also falling. I guess the shift in inequality is settling down after the hyper globalisation phase of the 90s.
Hopefully the increase of renewables in the next ten years will also accelerate global poverty reduction as now small businesses can provide electricity and heating services to firms and individuals as opposed to relying on corrupt governments in developing countries.
