| Hard Facts |
|
Global energy intensity rose 1.35 percent in 2010—a rare exception to a long-term positive trend that saw energy intensity drop by just over 20 percent from 1981 to 2010.
In 2010, global oil consumption reached an all-time high of 87.4 million barrels. At 37 percent of primary energy use, it remains the largest single source of energy, though its share has declined for 11 consecutive years.
-
Fossil fuel consumption subsidies fell 44 percent in 2009, to $312 billion—reflecting changes in international energy prices rather than a change in policies.
-
Continuing its rapid ascent, installed global wind power capacity increased 24 percent to 197,000 megawatts in 2010—nine times as much as a decade ago.
-
Solar photovoltaic generating capacity grew even faster. The 16,700 megawatts that were newly installed in 2010 surpasses the total PV capacity that was in place in 2008.
- The production of passenger cars and light trucks reached a new peak in 2010, surging from 60 million to 74.7 million.
- High-speed rail lines expanded from 10,700 kilometers in 2009 to almost 17,000 kilometers in 2011. High-speed trips accounted for 7 percent of all rail passenger travel in 2010.
- Organic farming methods were used on 37.2 million hectares worldwide in 2009. This represents a 150 percent increase since 2000, yet the organic area amounts to just 0.85 percent of global agricultural land.
- Per capita meat consumption in the developing world doubled to 32 kilograms over the past quarter-century, but this is still far below consumption levels in the industrial world.
- The number of overweight people aged 15 or older worldwide jumped 25 percent since 2002, to 1.93 billion
