Our Rising/Falling Energy Consumption

The Millennium Consumption Goals (MCGS) were proposed in 2011 as a complement to the MDGS. They were created to address the emerging challenges of unsustainable consumption and resource shortages and to help to secure a greater commitment to sustainable development. Here we consider how much energy seven major economies consume, and how much that amount has risen or fallen in the past decade.
