UNDERSTANDING LONG-TERM ENERGY USE AND CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS IN THE USA [PDF]
We compile a database of energy uses, energy sources, and carbon dioxide emissions for the USA for the period 1850-2002. We use a model to extrapolate the missing observations on energy use by sector. Overall emission intensity rose between 1850 and 1917,

Energy Use and Energy Intensity of the U.S. Chemical Industry
, 2000 The U.S. chemical industry is the largest in the world, and responsible for about 11 percent of the U.S. industrial production measured as value added. It consumes approximately 20 percent of total industrial energy consumption in the U.S. (1994), and contributes in similar proportions to U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.

Facial Cosmetic Therapy Use Among Patients With Systemic Sclerosis: An Australian Cohort Study
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is associated with numerous facial manifestations for which patients may engage in cosmetic therapies. It is unclear how patients with SSc use these therapies. This study sought to characterize patient engagement and experiences with cosmetic therapies for SSc‐related and non‐SSc–related facial changes.
