Between 2004 and 2008, global energy intensity experienced its sharpest decline in 30 years, with an average annual growth rate of 1.87%. With both population and consumption growing worldwide, the capacity of the world’s economy to require less energy for each unit of output has been a rare positive trend for the environment.

According to a recent report by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), 2008 was the first year in which new power generation investments in renewables were greater than investments in fossil-fuelled technologies. The declining increase in China’s emissions fits the trend since 2004, when its emissions increased by 17%.

The remaining two-thirds are lost as waste heat going into the environment through the car’s exhaust emissions and through the radiator. This method of maintaining temperatures is equally suited for all kinds of vehicles and in all climate zones, although it is somewhat more effective at low temperatures.

But in a year that has seen both a worsening recession and state budget crisis, residents’ support for urgent action on climate change has slipped and a partisan divide on the issue has widened. Californians clearly support policies to improve the environment. But in the current economic climate their support has dropped a notch.
