One cubic mile of oil (CMO) corresponds very closely to the world's current total
annual consumption of crude oil. The world's total annual energy consumption from all energy sources- is currently 3.0 CMO. By the middle of this century the
world will need between 6 and 9 CMO of energy per year to provide for its
citizens. Adequate energy is needed remove the scourge of poverty and
provide food, clothing, and shelter for the people around the world, and more
will be needed for measures to mitigate the potential effects of climate change
such as building dikes and desalinating water. A Cubic Mile of Oil describes the
various energy sources and how we use them, projects their future
contributions, and delineates what it would take to develop them to annually
produce a CMO from each of them. The requirement for additional energy in the
future is so daunting that we will need to use all resources. We also examine
how improved efficiency and conservation measures can reduce future demand
substantially, and help distinguish approaches that make a significant impact as
opposed to merely making us feel good. Use of CMO eliminates a multitude of
units like tons of coal, gallons of oil, and cubic feet of gas; obviates the need for
mind-numbing multipliers such as billions, trillions, and quadrillions; and replaces
them with an easy-to-understand volumetric unit. It evokes a visceral response
and allows experts, policy makers and the general public alike to form a mental
picture of the magnitude of the challenge we face. In the absence of an
appreciation of the scale of the problem, we risk squandering efforts and
resources in pursuing options that will not meet tomorrow's global energy
needs. We must make critical choices, and a common understandable language
is essential for a sustained meaningful dialog.
