Globally, fossil fuel energy use was about 132 billion megawatt-hours (MWh) in 2016. Table 1 shows the individual estimates for coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as the carbon intensity of each fuel, given in kilograms of CO2 per MWh of energy consumed. For example, each MWh of coal that is burned releases about 350 kg of CO2. Use the table to estimate the total amount of CO2 (in kilograms, kg) that was emitted in 2016 from the burning of fossil fuels. Start by estimating the amount emitted for each fuel type. Then find the total. You may find it beneficial to use scientific notation. For example 44 billion MWh is 44 × 10° MWh (or 44E9, as entered into your calculator).
