    Energy - where does it come from - where does it go?

    I thought this graphic was really cool. There's a LOT of info on here.

    No diesel power plants, eh?
    The sun has fallen down
    And the billboards are all leering
    And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles.

    It's in there - the little green thread going up from the petroleum box (Petroleum encompases gasoline, kerosene (jet fuel), diesel, naphtha, etc.)

    Bio Mass is a larger % than I expected, as well I had no idea so much energy was lost in the process of converting it to be usable.

    Is diesel charted as powering electricity though? I can't see the graphic here at work, but it struck me as curious that none of it is going to the power generation box.
