Present annual world energy consumption is about equal to the annihilation energy of 4 tons of matter.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The consumption and production of energy is a major component of the global economy.
Energy consumption matters both to our environment and our economy.
We waste an awful lot of energy as a Nation through inefficient use of energy.
We need to figure out a way to create more energy on a gigawatt scale and not create so much CO2 in the process.
Let's learn to consume the least amount of energy possible.
I'm using more energy than ever.
It seems that every time mankind is given a lot of energy, we go out and wreck something with it.
We live in a world bathed in 5,000 times more energy than we consume as a species in the year, in the form of solar energy. It's just not in usable form yet.
The total amount of energy we use every year - from coal, oil, natural gas, hydro, nuclear, and everything else - is dwarfed by the amount of solar energy hitting the planet each year.
Energy begets energy.
