That's an energy transition hierarchy. That's a global health hierarchy. Right. That's an access to food hierarchy. That's a clean water hierarchy. That's a clean soils hierarchy. That's a clean air hierarchy. Opportunity for your children hierarchy. It's everything. Right. And so if you could picture the average of the wealthy world, 1.3 billion of us, consume about 50 megawatt hours. Right.

And we make about $50,000 per person. 50 megawatt hours per capita, $50,000 per capita. That's the average of the wealthy world annually. The US is higher than that. 50-50, that's kind of convenient. At the end of every year, I tear apart a bunch of data for several weeks. It's my fun. And so I kind of was working on population data, economic data, and energy data at the end of last year.

And this is cool. Conveniently cool. 50-50. Yep. All right. Sticks in your head. 50-50. Seven billion other people in the world are below that. Some way below it. Now, it's not, well, there's a bunch of folks here and then there's some here and then here. It's a complete continuum, all right? But for convenience sake, there's 4 billion people emerging, You know, we have 50 megawatt hours.

Think about that. That's a couple cups of Starbucks or something a day. Yep, yep. And then as you come up through that, there's the developing world and then the developed world. Lumped all these 7 billion people. And they're stuck. Right. They're kind of stuck here. They haven't moved much. They're getting a little bit more. While the wealthy world, we consume more energy,
