the World’s oil consumption growth for at least another ten years, predicts the International energy agency IEA in a recent report (you move to another service).

the World energy organizations urge the world countries to take faster introduction of zero-emission wind and solar energy, because the organization according to the forecast global warming emissions continue to grow always until 2040.

Emissions increase continuously expanding energy production.

oil consumption in the IEA raises, in particular an suv, with the sale already in some countries surpassed the other car sales figures.

in the us car sales already two-thirds is an suv or pickup truck. In europe, these account for a third of the class.

the IEA notes that these powerful cars are so bulky that they are difficult to convert to electrical use. Large cars generalisation might even make a stupid electric cars that the use of emission reduction.

the fact is that suvs (SUV:t) are the energy production after the second largest cause of global emissions growth over the last ten years. Their share is higher than all other industries the growth in emissions in total, said IEA executive director Fatih Birol .

the Other main causes of emissions growth are plastic production and air travel increased as well as population growth especially in Asian and African cities.

the IEA reported that the current forecast according to the world used in the year 2040 a total of 106,4 million barrels of oil per day, while last year the level was 96.9 million barrels.

the united states has a key role. According to the IEA observed last year global oil consumption growth was mainly due to the Us business and consumer activities.

the United states accounted for the next ten years the projected growth of oil consumption is according to the IEA, 85%.

the IEA requires states to move quickly to renewable energy. In addition, energy efficiency should be urgently intensified.

the IEA argues that Asia constructed the new coal power plants would need to install carbon capture equipment, or they should be closed earlier than planned.
