BRICS represents ~32-36% of the global GDP, G20 ~80-85%, G7 ~30-45%.

BRICS represents 44-45% of the global population, G20 64%, G7 10%.

BRICS emits ~40% of global CO2, G20 78-80%, G7 ~23%.

Another ~40 countries have further expressed interest for membership in BRICS.

Note that some states are members in several organizations, thats why the %-numbers do not add up for 100%, but exceed it. The wider ranges given are indeed intentional, since sources vary drastically, depending on whom you refer to and what ideological camp he sides with. I am surprised by how much effect this bias seems to have.

Russia and China are drivng the agenda, but Russia currently finds it difficult to dominate it as much as it intends. Several countries have an interest to jump off the dollar regime.

Conclusion: BRICS is powerful enough that only a fool would not take it as a serious multidimensional challenge. Mocking it is premature.
