growth difference was a whopping 9.3 %

The three
scenarios developed are Modern Jazz, which represents a «digitally disrupted,» innovative, and market - driven world, Unfinished Symphony, a world in which more «intelligent» and sustainable economic

scenario called Hard Rock, which explores the consequences of weaker and unsustainable economic
growth with inward - looking policies.
As far as CO2 production goes, we have vastly exceeded the expectation of
scenario B (which does not include the crazy CFC

scenario 2 correctly).

growth, as per the OECD's latest long - term forecast.
