In patients with congestive heart failure, it reduces the need for and the consumption of oxygen of the heart muscle.

The United Nations climate panel and the International Energy Agency both echo this sentiment, insisting that higher energy efficiency could reduce energy consumption by up to 30 making improved efficiency an effective remedy for climate change.

Total energy use is soaring, reflecting the combined effect of rising per capita incomes and thus rising per capita energy use and population growth.

As these measures take effect, self sufficient satellite towns will likely develop, reducing transportation related energy consumption further, while fostering a more active civil society.

But the lion s share of these investments result in lower energy usage, and thus reduced energy costs.

Past bills can be used to provide a comparison between pre and post EMS energy consumption.

The government needs to encourage conservation, and intervening in the price system namely, through taxes on energy is an efficient way to do it.

Attempts to shave costs by economizing on energy use reduce pollution.

Growing renewable energy consumption creates new opportunities for renewable energy technology manufacturing and related installation and maintenance services.

Shifts to more energy efficient means of transportation ease congestion.

Consumption of energy, and its associated emissions, continue to grow to meet development needs.

In 2008, renewable energy (mainly hydropower and various forms of wood energy) was high at 31 compared with the EU average of 10.3 in final energy consumption.

This reduces the stress on divers who are already in a stressful situation, and this in turn reduces air consumption during the rescue.

Because of rising energy prices from green subsidies, 800,000 German households can no longer pay their electricity bills.

This means that the energy consumption per capita is around 7.2 tons of oil equivalent per year.

He programmed cpudyn, a daemon that can be used to underclock portable computers to reduce their power consumption.

The use of nuclear power for exclusively peaceful purposes would cut down on environmental damage and harmful climate change.

Currently, transportation systems account for nearly a quarter of the world s energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission.

Currently, 20 percent of California's energy consumption is used to pump water into mostly Southern California.

Nevertheless, electricity usage has reached near record levels.

Despite power consumption issues, and repeated predictions of its end, Moore's law is still in effect.

It brings carrying capacity down, and there's not enough carrying capacity to support the people. And then you're in trouble.

And global warming s impact would reduce energy consumption for almost all nations.

And the US is taking steps to balance its budget, boost private savings, and enhance energy efficiency.

But energy consumption and thus carbon emissions rise with per capita income.

Higher energy use is already changing the world's climate in dangerous ways.

While US Vice President Dick Cheney denigrates the idea of energy conservation, China s leaders have adopted a new five year plan that commits the country to cut energy use by one fifth, industrial pollution by one tenth, and industrial water consumption by one third.

At the same time, natural gas accounts for 51 of energy consumption, compared to 32 for oil and barely 17 for coal, renewables, and hydroelectric and nuclear power.

Iran s energy demand will exceed its supply, possibly reducing or even eliminating its oil export capacity in the near future.

For instance, the energy consumption of every unit of Chinese industrial output is close to three times the global average.

As a result, they boast some of the world s lowest energy consumption as a share of GDP.

The agency is supporting the 2000 watt society initiative to cut the nation's energy use by more than half by the year 2050.

Smelting copper ore, for example, is more than twice as energy intensive as recycling copper.

The net result of a series of small changes would be a dramatic reduction in energy consumption.

Up to a threshold of around 100 kwh per capita per day, energy consumption and human development indicators go hand in hand.

This is the kind of frugally engineered product that can create enormous new consumer demand in emerging markets.

Firstly, China succeeded in lowering its energy consumption per unit of GDP by 1.79 , 4.04 and 4.59 respectively for 2006, 2007, and 2008, which strongly suggests the prospect of meeting the 20 objective by 2010.

He announced a program of energy research that would reduce American oil imports from the Middle East by 75 over the next two decades.

By imposing a stiff tax on energy consumption, Europeans would reduce both consumption of energy and its price in world markets, in turn cutting the flow of funds to Russia and Iran.

Moreover, economists contend that energy consumption per capita is declining, owing to more efficient use.

For example, lightweight, two passenger vehicles can be up to ten times more energy efficient than a typical car.

The changeover to a sustainable energy system will not come quickly, and will require new kinds of electrical power plants, new kinds of automobiles, and green buildings, which economize on energy use.

American citizens resistance to moderating energy consumption for the sake of the global environment is much more deeply embedded.

Since the city s consumption of electric power never stops, the boilers could never be idle.

What is required, first and foremost, are market based incentives to induce Americans to use less energy and to produce more energy in ways that emit less carbon.
