Energy Consumption by more populated countires


Just came across this chart from a site. Since the oil companies CEO's are not any more U.S President and Vice president, I really hope, Obama administration takes some drastic measures to reduce the Non-renewable energy consumption by United States. United States is only 5% of world population, but it's using 23% of world energy resources With rising energy consumption from BRIC countries especially China (Monster demand for energy), it's really high time, some siginificant break through should happen in Renewable energy business. I really hope, we should fix this problem, before the coming generation blame us. Recently I listened to Vinod Khosla lecture, he said there is huge rise in the Scientfic research towards Renewable energy and hopefully they come up with the good and affordable solution to the consumers. and I also little worry, if we comeup with a great solution, then everybody will be cranking more energy than ever. It's upto the individual to use energy wisely.
