but one of the key variables isn't just population size, it's degree of motorization..

It's my perception that the population growth will largely come from areas of relatively low motorization adding to the clamour for energy as they demand more "motorization".

Was there any estimate of an increase in energy consumption by the US per person (or the West) going forward. I'm wondering whether the per person consumption in the west is expected to be at satiation or nowhere near it?

I should go away on a trip more often, look at zinc, lead and Moly go while I'm gone for 3 weeks. I looked every 3 days or so at what was going on.
