Europe deindustrialization in energy numbers

china is climbing fast and europe's industrial edge over it keeps slipping, that's the part that lands. the per capita energy numbers make the case: the united kingdom sits at its 1968 level and germany at its 1980 level, both presented as today. france and italy are on the same chart, same direction. call it deindustrialization or call it backward development, either way the trajectory is down while china goes up. and the reminder underneath it all: no wealthy nation runs on low energy. production per capita and wealth move together, so a continent losing the first is losing the second.
