I'm not disagreeing with the sentiments, only the numbers.
The US is 4.23% of the world's population.
50% of the food and 80% of energy? I seriously doubt that.
I make it out to be 17-24% of world's energy.
Yeah, we're hogs. There is a problem.
You made me feel so guilty that I just turned off the lights.
It's very early morning here.
OTOH, all my electricity is solar.
