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

China uses coal, a particularly CO2 intensive fuel, for 70 of its commercial energy supply, while coal accounts for a third of America s total energy.

Improperly configured BMS systems are believed to account for 20 of building energy usage, or approximately 8 of total energy usage in the United States.

The control of food intake is a physiologically complex, motivated behavioral system.

Finally, much as Austria Hungary formed an alliance with Germany to fill a strategic need for military security, EU members have sought, through their intake of Russian gas, to meet a strategic need for energy security.

The total solar radiation hitting the planet is about 1,000 times the world s commercial energy use.

The observations suggest 73 of the total energy density of today's universe is in this form.

Governments of several countries are committed to increasing the share of renewables in total energy supply.

The intake of women in the Dutch Institute for the Fire Service and Disaster Management, which employs students during their training, has in recent years been a consistent one third of the total number of new students.

The most common health problems related to pregnant women's nutrition during pregnancy in BiH are low percentage of breastfeeding, high intake of fat, inadequate intake of fruits and vegetables, and deficit of iron.

In addition, Reeve doubled his food intake and adopted a high protein diet.

By 2035, shale gas is projected to account for roughly one half of total US energy production.

Canada sends around 98 of its total energy exports to the United States, meaning that Canada is the largest supplier of energy exports to the world's largest economy.

One guard takes our papers and our valuables and the rest handle the intake.

Problems with propeller fouling, blocked intake pipes and damaged drive shafts have been reported.

The total energy of a hurricane is found by multiplying the intensity of the hurricane by its duration.

If you reduce your child s intake of fruits and vegetables by just 0.03 grams a day (that s the equivalent of half a grain of rice) when you opt for more expensive organic produce, the total risk of cancer goes up, not down.

In terms of total lifecycle costs, these vehicles are three to six times more energy efficient than their petroleum counterparts.

In quantum mechanics, the Hamiltonian is the operator corresponding to the total energy of the system in most of the cases.

In rapidly developing nations, demand for energy intense foods, like meat, is growing, increasing the total amount of fossil fuels used.

From playing with it, they learn some basic principles about fire, about intake, about combustion, about exhaust.

According to the Planck mission team, and based on the standard model of cosmology, the total mass energy of the known universe contains 4.9 ordinary matter, 26.8 dark matter and 68.3 dark energy.

This effect is much less significant than the total energy change due to the axial tilt, and most of the excess energy is absorbed by the higher proportion of water in the southern hemisphere.

At this point, anything can be created as long as it has the same energy and maintains a total charge of zero.

Nuclear fission s contribution to total electric energy has decreased from about 18 more than ten years ago to about 14 in 2008.

However, the ratio of resting metabolic rate to total daily energy expenditure can vary between 1.6 to 8.0 between species of mammals.

This system will end with the new intake in 2009, with new arrangements as yet to be confirmed.

Regarding technology transfer, it was stressed that joint ventures were a prime vehicle for ensuring dissemination and intake.

However, while the absolute amount of worldwide renewable energy use has been rising significantly, the overall share of renewables in the world's total primary energy supply has increased only marginally over the past three decades.

If these people are richer than people today (and therefore using more energy per person), total emissions worldwide could double or even triple.

The sector is rapidly developing, with an aim of increasing the total share of nuclear energy from current 16.9 to 23 by 2020.

In 2003, the United States consumed 147 trillion BTU of energy from landfill gas , about 0.6 of the total U.S. natural gas consumption.

The International Energy Agency estimates that, over the next two decades, ensuring universal access to electricity would require around 10 of total annual investment in the energy sector, which can be mobilized by the private sector.

We must also protect our oceans, which are the source of 16 of the global population s animal protein intake.

The international community must make a much more serious commitment to renewable energy, efficiency, and other environmentally friendly energy sources. A business as usual approach would mean that by 2030 carbon dioxide emissions would be 70 higher than today, and renewable energy would account for a mere 4 of total energy usage, up from 2 now.

Herein lies the technological problem to meet this goal, non carbon based sources of energy would have to be an astounding 2.5 times greater in 2100 than the level of total global energy consumption was in 2000.

Some of the tools introduced at the workshop include COPATH (Carbon Pasture Agriculture Total Harvesting), LEAP (Long range Energy Alternatives Planning system), MARKAL MACRO (Market Allocation Macro Economic Model), ENEP (Energy and Power Evaluation Program) and RETscreen.
