Consumption of Nonrenewable Resources
The world3 model does not directly link industrial output to resource utilization. Instead, the industrial output per capita is calculated, and that is used to determine resource usage per capita. This is then multiplied by the total population to determine the total resource consumption. Per capita resource utilization multiplier (PCRUM) and Industrial Output per Capita (IOPC)
