When was consumption changed to tuberculosis?

Researching in an attempt to find a specific date when consumption was changed to tuberculosis has been difficult. The best information available tends to lead one to believe that this change occurred around 1950. Consumption can still refer to the terminal stage of tuberculosis.


Has the percentage of energy imported to the United States increased or decreased over the last fifty years?

Increased. In 1950, 8.4% of the total volume of crude oil consumption in the United States was imported. Imports as a percentage of the total consumption peaked at 66.6% in 2006, and have declined since to 56.9% in 2012. Note that in my calculations using the U.S. Energy Information Administration raw data, Consumption = Production - Exports + Net Imports. See also the related link for the EIA generated graph. Imports of coal, natural gas, and other forms of energy into the U.S. are considered negligable during this time period.

How much fossil fuel is the US using currently?

As has been the case since 1950, petroleum was the most-consumed fuel in 2011, at 35.3 quads. Use of petroleum, which includes crude oil as well as natural gas plant liquids, has fallen recently from its peak historical level of 40.4 quads in 2005. Natural gas, which had been consumed in roughly equal amounts to coal for several years, accounts for almost 25 quads compared to coal's 20 quads in 2011. Natural gas and renewable energy were the only fuel sources whose consumption increased in 2011.
