Image talk:Energy consumption versus GDP.png

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Basis of GDP numbers?

On what GDP numbers is this image based? It doesn't match what I've seen, for example, List of countries by GDP (nominal) per capita and List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita. Guanxi 05:16, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Using the kW/capita (electricity consumption/capita) number only looks at electricity usage. You should be plotting the TPES (Total Primary Energy Supply) per capita on the x-axis if you want to show total energy usage per capita. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.156.138.21 (talk) 18:47, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Picture representing correlation petween energy consumption and GDP makes no sence. Presented data are missleading. For example, GDP per caprita of russia IS NOT $3000 and never been of this value. For example CIA fact book estimates it as $14600 wich is about 5 times bigger. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/rs.html Distrivbution of such missleading information in Wikipedia is stupid. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.255.88.105 (talk • contribs) 15:07, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
