The numbers created under the 鈥渂usiness-as-usual鈥 scenario depict such a scenario without drastic deviations in technology advancement or policy-making from past episodes. While there is typically still some technological progress in the form of reducing emissions intensities (stemming e.g. from energy efficiency gains) that are partly a result of policy actions, this scenario does not take into account announced policy pledges or the like.

GHG emission projections from the industry sector in the U.S. and China 2020-2050
China's industry greenhouse gas emissions amounted to *** billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GTCO鈧俥) in 2021. Meanwhile, emissions from the industry sector in the United States were less than *** GTCO鈧俥 that same year. According to , industry-related greenhouse gas emissions in both countries are forecast to experience a downward trend in the following decades under a 鈥渂usiness-as-usual鈥 scenario.
