Band 9: The charts show projections for global production by sector in 2040 and 2060. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

The two pie charts illustrate the projected global production by sector for the years 2040 and 2060.

Overall, the services and manufacturing sectors are anticipated to contribute the largest share to global production in both years, accounting for approximately 71% in 2040 and 74% in 2060. In contrast, materials, energy, agriculture, and information-communication technology are projected to constitute smaller proportions of the total global output.

Looking at the specific changes, the services sector is expected to slightly increase its share from 40% in 2040 to 41% in 2060. Similarly, the manufacturing sector is predicted to see a modest rise from 31% to 33% over the same period. The proportions of materials and information-communication technology are also projected to increase marginally, from 3% to 4% and from 15% to 16%, respectively.

In contrast, the energy sector is forecast to experience a slight decline in its contribution to global production, decreasing from 7% in 2040 to 5% in 2060. The agriculture sector is anticipated to see the most significant decrease, dropping from 4% in 2040 to just 1% in 2060. Notably, by 2060, the combined projected output of the energy and agriculture sectors (6%) is only slightly higher than that of the materials sector (4%).
