CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What is the global per capita meat consumption? What is the global electricity consumption in 2020?

1. What is the global per capita meat consumption?

Against the backdrop of consumption upgrading and the impact of the African swine fever epidemic, beef and mutton consumption has begun to grow steadily in recent years, reaching a new high in 2020. In 2020, the number of beef cattle slaughtered throughout the year was about 29.2 million, with a total carcass output of about 7.4 million tons and a net meat output of about 6.37 million tons; about 3.7 million yaks were slaughtered, with a carcass output of about 480,000 tons and a net meat output of 390,000 tons. According to USDA data, China's beef consumption reached 9.515 million tons, ranking second in the world. If the total population is calculated as 1.4 billion, the per capita beef consumption is about 6.8 kg.

2. Global electricity consumption in 2020?

The 2020 report shows that global electricity consumption for the whole year was 21,776,088 kW·h. The power generation in 2019 only increased by 1.3% over 2018, which is much lower than the 3.9% increase last year.

China is still the country with the largest electricity production in the world and the largest increase. In 2019, the power generation reached 7503.4TWh, an increase of 4.7% over 2018. China's total power generation accounted for 27.8% of the world's total; while the United States, Japan, Germany, France and the United Kingdom all decreased. China's population accounts for about 19% of the world's population. In 2019, China's electricity consumption accounted for 27.8% of the world's total, but the per capita electricity consumption is still lower than that of the United States. In addition, China's renewable energy power generation is higher than that of the United States.

3. What is the annual global copper consumption?

In 2019, global copper consumption was 23.82 million tons, compared with 23.92 million tons in the same period last year. China's apparent demand was 12.8 million tons, up 2.5% from the same period last year. The output of the 28 EU countries decreased by 4.7%, and the demand was 3.069 million tons, down 7.5% from the previous year.

In December 2019, global refined copper production was 2.1624 million tons and consumption was 2.1219 million tons.

4. Global natural gas consumption?

In 2005, the global natural gas consumption was 277.433 billion cubic meters, and in 2015, the global natural gas consumption was 346.865 billion cubic meters.

5. What is China’s global oil consumption in 2020?

In 2020, domestic crude oil consumption was 649.65 million tons, of which 456.30 million tons were imported. The external dependence increased from 55% in 2011 to 70% in 2020. Natural gas, 101.66 million tons were imported in 2020, domestic consumption was 237.44 million tons, and the import dependence was 42.8%.

In 2020, China Petroleum's domestic crude oil production reached 743.8 million barrels, a year-on-year increase of 0.6%; marketable natural gas production reached 3,993.8 billion cubic feet, a year-on-year increase of 9.9%; Sinopec's domestic crude oil production reached 249.52 million barrels, a year-on-year increase of 0.03%, and natural gas production reached 10,723 billion cubic feet, a year-on-year increase of 2.3%.

6. Global silver production and consumption?

Just for reference:

First, most of the world's gold and silver were produced after 1900. For gold, the world has produced 91% of gold since 1900, while silver production accounts for 81% of the world's total.

Second, according to the best data, since 1493, gold production has been about 173,000 tons (5.5 billion ounces) and silver has been 48.5 billion ounces. This turns out to be a 9 to 1 ratio, which is the same ratio of silver to gold in the ground.

7. How many tons of fish will be consumed globally in 2020?

The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture 2020 report states that global per capita fish consumption has reached a new record of 20.5 kg per year. Inland capture fisheries, an important source of food for many food-restricted countries, reached their highest level on record, reaching 12 million tonnes.

8. How many tons of fish are consumed worldwide each year?

In 2018, global fish production was approximately 179 million tonnes, with a total first-time sales value estimated at $401 billion. Aquaculture products accounted for 46% of total production and 52% of fish consumed by humans. China ranks first in production, and since 1991, its highly developed aquaculture industry has provided the country with a large amount of farmed aquatic products, more than the rest of the world combined.

9. Which sea has the richest fish resources in the world?

Japan's Hokkaido fishing ground, North Sea fishing ground, Newfoundland fishing ground and Peruvian fishing ground are the four major fishing grounds in the world!

1. Hokkaido fishing grounds, Japan

Located in Hokkaido, Japan, the Kuril Current and the Japan Current meet. We know that there are many fish species where the cold and warm currents meet, which is also a prerequisite for the formation of fishing grounds. The Hokkaido fishing ground is also the largest fishing ground in the world, accounting for 25% of the catch in Japan. The main fish species include salmon, haddock, herring and saury, etc. Moreover, the seawater here has never been polluted, and the fish quality is particularly good.

2. North Sea Fishery

Located on the northeastern edge of the Atlantic Ocean, it is formed by the confluence of the North Atlantic warm current and the Greenland current. The fresh fish production here accounts for half of the world's total, providing abundant fish resources for European countries. The annual catch of the North Sea fishing grounds is about 3 million tons, accounting for 5% of the world's catch. The main fish species are herring, mackerel and cod.

3. Peruvian Fisheries

The Peruvian coastal area, located in the eastern Pacific Ocean, has a large number of plankton due to the Peruvian cold current and a large amount of nutrients such as nitrates and phosphates, providing favorable living conditions for cold-water fish. The Peruvian fishing grounds are rich in more than 800 species of fish and shellfish, including anchovies and anchovies. The catch in 1972 exceeded 10 million tons, but this fishing ground is susceptible to the El Nino phenomenon and the production has dropped sharply.

4. Newfoundland Fishing Ground

As early as 1534, it was discovered that there were abundant fish in the Newfoundland Island, Canada, North America, which is formed by the confluence of the Gulf Stream and the Labrador Current. The Newfoundland fishing grounds are rich in cod and are known as "you can go ashore by stepping on the backs of cod schools". However, due to centuries of overfishing, the fish production has dropped significantly since the 1990s, but it is still considered one of the four famous fishing grounds in the world.

10. How many tons of fish, meat and food will be consumed globally in 2020?

The 2020 State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture report points out that global per capita fish consumption has reached a new record of 20.5 kg per year and is expected to increase further in the next decade, highlighting the key role of fish in global food and nutrition security. At the same time, sustainable aquaculture development and effective fisheries management are essential to maintain the above trends.

"Fish and fishery products are not only recognized as the healthiest food in the world, but also belong to the category of food with the least impact on the natural environment. Fish and fishery products must play a key role in food security and nutrition strategies at all levels," said Qu Dongyu, Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

The report shows that by 2030, total fish production will increase to 204 million tons, a 15% increase from 2018, and aquaculture's share will also increase from the current 46%. This increase is about half of the increase in the past decade.

The report says that while effective fisheries management can allow fish populations to grow or recover, ineffective measures can threaten their contribution to food security and livelihoods. The root causes of failures in sustainable practices are complex and require solutions tailored to local circumstances.

The report analyzes that currently about 34.2% of fish stocks are fished, which is too high and not biologically sustainable. Globally, this trend has not improved.

The report states that aquaculture will continue to expand, albeit at a slower pace, but farmed fish will capture a larger share of consumption and trade over the next decade. Inland capture fisheries, an important source of food for many food-constrained countries, reached their highest level on record, reaching 12 million tonnes. Fish consumption accounts for one-sixth of the world's population's animal protein intake.
