Where did you get your information for this breakdown?Watersoftheoasis 22:46, 1 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a bit confused by your "Energy Intensity" plot at "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Energy_Intensity.png". I'm assuming MJ/$ is megajoules per dollar, but what does this mean? Number of megajoules of energy consumed in the country per dollar of GDP? Number of megajoules you can buy with a dollar in that country? Perhaps you could add an explanation of the plot's units to the summary. Thanks for the contribution anyway!

To add...

To the unsigned person: No, just how much energy is used per dollar of GNP. Say, if you're making aluminium (70% of its cost is energy used), you'll have high value, and if you're sitting in the office, huge.

To Merlo: There are some mistakes or inconsistency in the chart. First, the GDP values in the don't match the GDP in our List of countries by GDP (PPP) per capita. Second, by this chart, some countries would have insane figures like 75MJ/$ (Russia), not physically possible (the energy alone costs ~$1 per 36 MJ) and not reflected on another chart.

A tag has been placed on Image:Energy consumption versus GDP.png, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

WP:PN, Russia GDP per capita data is wrong. For 2006 year it is 3 times higher

I noticed your graph and looked into it because it appeared to show interesting information. However, when I looked at the summary you provided, "This means that India is the most energy efficient country per capita in the world" I became concerned since the data shown says nothing that specific. I too found that your data does not match that of your source or your conclusions, as far as I can tell. Could you please clarify? --Fitzhugh (talk) 22:05, 1 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request to add a line of best fit.

Would you be able to add a line of best fit to this graph? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.20.70.239 (talk) 11:03, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
