** $29.5 million
------------------------------------------------------------

In FY 2020, the Export-Import Bank of the United States authorized a mere $29.5 million for renewable energy exports. However, the Biden administration's intent to no longer finance fossil fuel exports and projects overseas will significantly reorient the United States' geoeconomic priorities.

** 25 years
------------------------------------------------------------

Under current Federal Communications Commission regulation, satellites must be deorbited within 25 years of the end of their mission to better preserve the space environment. Yet many small satellites have a lifespan one-tenth of that time or less—contributing to several near misses between non-maneuverable objects this past year.

** 2.4%
------------------------------------------------------------

The infrastructure investment gap in developing Asia—that is, the difference between investment needs and current investment levels—equals 2.4 percent of projected GDP for the 5-year period from 2016 to 2020 when incorporating climate mitigation and adaptation costs.

** 3 billion
------------------------------------------------------------

For the first time in 20 years, global poverty is expected to significantly increase—adding to the estimated 3 billion people worldwide who cannot afford the cheapest form of a healthy diet and raising doubts as to whether the current productivity-centered food system model will be adequate to nourish the world by 2050.
