Small cities heavily guarded behind huge walls to protect them from the unlucky, vast majority. The only time the dwellers get out of their bubble is to get resources. No more climate problems, as these cities are small and selective. Like on average the eCO2 tonnage is very low, but disparity city/rest is 1000x.
