Once you enter the site, move the cursor over different countries to see their populations, how much carbon dioxide they emit, and how often people are born and die. The more a country grows the more energy it uses. Compare the United States to other countries. Notice how often the United States turns red and what that means. You only need to watch this for a minute or two. Write down three things that you learned from this site.
