Typical Questions That Stem From This Lecture

1.) What is the expected CO2 emission rate (billion metric tonnes/y) from the burning of fossil fuels in the year 2025 if the current world mixture of fuels stays the same?

2.) How much does the annual net percentage increase in the World population (as assumed in the U. S. Census Bureau predictions) change from 1994-5 to 2049-50? Hint: you may have to use the Web.

3.) What effect would a doubling of the per capita energy use rate in non-OECD Asia have on the total World energy use rate (in Billions of boe) in 1992? How much effect would a 50% reduction in the U. S. per capita use have on the World energy use rate in 1992?
