I'm not finding those worldwide consumption figures. Here's what I was able to find on the EIA site: http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu /steo/pub/xls/Fig5.xls
There's a definite increase from 84.622 to 85.385 mbd from '06 to '07. Same basic trend for 2008. Growth is slowing, but the overall consumption is rising pretty steadily. Looks like growth will kick back up in '08.
to download the latest figures that are available on the website which are not projections...which are for 2006. Then I went to the countries here: http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/co untry/index.cfmWhere 2007 figures are available, added them up and I got that figure. You can it yourself if are so desirous. The figures you show go to 2009...those are projections. I am not saying their figures are wrong, but they are at odds with the figures they present in other parts of teh site. Very confusing.

Just copy the web link address. Then, when you reply or post a new topic, simply highlight the text in your post that you would like to associate the link with and click the little chain icon at the bottom of the posting box. Copy the link address in the "link URL" box that pops up, click the "insert" button and your done. I also like to make the link text bold so it stands out a little.
You do have to allow popups for the young turks site for this to work.
