Yeah, I'd like to see a nice absolute value chart because it's difficult to see what any given fuel source is doing in a particular year since it's height on the graph is affected by the sources below it. Coal is the only easily interpreted fuel on the graph since the height is unaffected by other fuel sources.

So this graph uses projected energy use in 2100 and sets that as 100%, meaning that in 1850 we were using 15% as much energy compared to what is projected in 2100?
