1 Energy, Environment, Sustainability A Global Challenge Issue Tackled Collaboratively by McDonnell Academy Partner Universities Pratim Biswas

2 Fuel Economics & Reserves Energy Security CO2 & Other Environmental Emissions ENERGY IS A Complex GLOBAL CHALLENGE ISSUE: THE ELEMENTS OF THE ENERGY EQUATION AAQRL - Aerosol and Air Quality Research Laboratory Energy Efficiency Increasing Energy Demand Policy

3 Energy consumption data source: US Energy Information Administration. International Energy Outlook 2013. Population data source: United Nations, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division (2013). World Population Prospects: The 2012 GLOBAL ANNUAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND POPULATION GROWTH POPULATION ANNUAL ENERGY USE

4 Year Global Annual Energy Consumption by fuel (TWh) 2014 28% 27% 23% 15% 7% 33% 29% 22% 5% Source: US Energy Information Administration. Inal Energy Outlook 2013. 11% Petroleum and other liquid fuels (including biofuels) Coal Natural gas Renewables (excluding biofuels) Nuclear Share of global total GLOBAL ANNUAL ENERGY CONSUMPTION BY SOURCE
