Another chart showing the growth in energy consumption in the developed vs developing world from 2000 to 2011. Wow!

I just this one after the one I just previously posted.

The change in energy use JUST since 2000 is quite amazing.  The BRIC countries, Brazil, Russia, India and ESPECIALLY China have all increased their consumption of energy (from a variety of sources, mostly carbon based) and developed countries for the most part consume a smaller share.

This can be good, bad, or ugly---depends on which side of the economic development scale you reside in.
