The paper's authors apply a simple model of the world oil market to reach their conclusions, which are driven by the potential for the pipeline to increase global oil supply, thus lowering oil prices and increasing consumption.

Global coal consumption grew by just 0.4 % (15 million tonnes oil equivalent or Mtoe)-- its slowest rate since the Asian crisis in 1998 — while production fell by 0.7 % or 28 Mtoe.

To get a sense of the enormity of that task, consider calculations from the International Energy Agency that show global oil consumption will need to fall to 80 million barrels a day by 2035 if we're to limit atmospheric carbon to 450 parts per million.

The increases imposed on the price of crude oil by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) since 1973 show how global consumption can change.

For every barrel of extra oil obtained from tar sands as a result of the pipeline, global oil consumption would increase by 0.6 barrels, because the extra oil would lower oil prices and encourage people to use more.

Global natural gas consumption grew by 2.2 percent to 2,987 million tons of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 2012 — more than triple the consumption recording in 1970, according to the report.

Although the growth rate of coal slows from the breakneck pace of the last decade, global coal consumption by 2017 stands at 4.32 billion tonnes of oil equivalent (btoe), versus around 4.40 btoe for oil, based on IEA medium - term projections.

If the current strong growth of plastics usage continues as expected, the plastics sector will account for 20 % of total oil consumption and 15 % of the global annual carbon budget by 2050.

Here are recent statements by vocal media impressarios and think tanks who spend their time, not in a laboratory, but in the popular media trying to convince the public that global warming is either not happening, or is not caused by our continued consumption of fossil fuels (oil, coal, gas etc).

Powerful impetus from other sectors is enough to keep oil demand on a rising trajectory to 105 mb / d by 2040: oil use to produce petrochemicals is the largest source of growth, closely followed by rising consumption for trucks (fuel - efficiency policies cover 80 % of global car sales today, but only 50 % of global truck sales), for aviation and for shipping.

By some estimates, a phase out of global fossil fuel consumption and production — particularly coal and oil — will need to be nearly complete within 50 years.

Experts agree that a shift in our energy and consumption is necessary to avert catastrophe brought on by global warming, yet there is strong resistance to a major move away from a coal - fired electricity and oil - based economy to one based on alternative sources of renewable energy.

The energy system is both a source of emissions that lead to global warming and it can also be directly affected by climate change: through changes in our energy consumption patterns, potential shutdowns of offshore oil and gas production, changing ice and snow conditions in the oil production regions of Alaska, changing sea ice conditions in the Arctic Ocean and the implications for shipping routes, and impacts of sea - level rise on coasts, where so much of our energy facility infrastructure is located.

These standards will reduce America's consumption of oil, save consumers money at the gas pump, and protect public health and the environment by curbing global warming pollution.

This study shows Brazilian sugarcane ethanol could displace up to 13 % of global crude oil consumption by 2045 whilst balancing forest conservation and future land demand for food.
