On one hand many countries will invest in heavy industry, manufacturing, and fall back to fossil fuels.
On the other hand, economy overall should slow down and consumption of non-essential goods and services will drop.
I'm not expecting any definite answers or numbers, of course, just some food for thought.

Look how much aid is coming to little country like Palestine to keep them alive. Given that I think it will decrease
