okay, right, now, thats better.....

i know you know a lot more about this than me, but i don't see where you get the figure of 57% from off that link.

Unless I'm blatantly missing something, 57% isn't mentioned there - the figures that are mentioneed are:
17000 kwh per 4 person household
15000 kwh for the car (i'm surprised it's that low)
7500 kwh per person for food = 30000 kwh per4ph

so food is only 48% (or so) which is still pretty high i grant you.

but the article also says that food energy usage costs are 10% of total costs in sweden (16-21% in the uk), and so even whilst we could make substantial energy savings in these area's PERSONAL energy usage is still a small minority of total energy used.

tho, i could just be totally misunderstanding the whole thing here i clearly grant you

mmmm, my nose hurts......
