Nice graphs from Google


I have just discovered Google's public data. This is a Google site which takes raw data from a number of sources and plots nice graphs, like the one above.

My personal electricity consumption is about 3000 kWh/year. The UK average of approx 6000 kWh/year includes public infrastructure usage eg pumping water, traffic lights and office/shop lighting.

An interesting graph would be energy consumption versus GNH (gross national happiness index). Google doesn't offer this yet...
