World Population, Energy Consumption and Supplies Even if world population growth slows down to zero: world energy consumption will continue to rise due to the The scenario of Figure 5 thus depicts a not unreasonable rapid take up of nuclear fusion energy starting just after the dot-dash curve 4 showing world population scenario, with fusion energy) seems unavoidable even with the (green curve 3, world population scenario, without fusion energy). ./cache/work_ewblty3tvbbh3igymjmoloyvpi.pdf ./txt/work_ewblty3tvbbh3igymjmoloyvpi.txt
