Abstract
⺠Energy consumption is inherently coupled to quality of life and population growth. ⺠Limiting overconsumption can keep 2040 energy consumption at 2010 levels. ⺠Restricting population growth has a minor effect on future energy demand. ⺠Social inequality reduction increases quality of life with a minor energy use. ⺠Increasing energy-for-life efficiency can keep 2040 energy use at 2010 levels.
