PARALLEL EVOLUTION OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION DURING THE ANTHROPOCENE |

The goal of this project is to track the concurrent evolution of energy consumption and pollution during the Anthropocene. Since 1700, population increase has been the primary driver of energy demand. The increased use of energy has resulted in pollution. All pollution-related metrics are increasing in lockstep with energy usage. In comparison to the Holocene, all graphs and clustering reveal individualization of the Anthropocene-Great Acceleration strata. All parameters appear to be steady between 1700 and 1760. Some environmental factors, but not all (CO2), show a small increase from 1760 to 1850. The Anthropocene's setting was dramatically increased between 1850 and 1950. The Great Acceleration begins in 1950 and is characterised by an exponential growth in all parameters.
