Oil COnsumption in Italy
Italy is a country that consumes more oil than it produces. Because of this, Italy is hugely dependent on imports in order to meet its energy needs. In 2013, Italy consumed 1,315.12 (thousands of barrels a day) of oil while it only produced 101.78 (thousands of barrels a day) of oil. As you can see, the consumption rate is much higher than the production rate. Some of the countries that supply Italy with oil are Libya, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia, and Russia. And from the information provided to me, Italy was ranked 12th in the world for the percentage of oil consumed which was 2.32%. This information helps you develop a sense of place for the country because it shows that Italy is well developed when it comes to needed oil. Similar to the U.S., Italy uses transportation vehicles that require oil. Transportation vehicles alone require the use of a lot of oil. Italy uses its resources and for the resources Italy may not have enough of, the county reaches out and relies on imports. This shows that Italy is a country that uses its coerces wisely and keeps peace with other countries in order to do so.
Use of Resources in italy
Italy is a mixed economy because of its big economic differences in the North and South. In the South, there is mostly agriculture and small farms, where in the North it is mainly an industrial market. This can also be known as a market economy and it is controlled by big companies. With Italy’s resources things such as clothing and fresh crops from farms will be produced. Olives are one of Italy’s most lucrative exports. And in 1999 the production of olives in Italy made the country the leading producer in the world (Encyclopedia, 2015). Italy has the perfect climate to produce olives. Another great feature of Italy’s economy is that you can find grapes anywhere in the Italian region. With a lot of grapes, comes a lot of wine. Winemaking has a very long tradition in the country, and Italy enjoys a positive trade balance in this sector (Encyclopedia, 2015). A lot of these good are produced naturally but some of them also do require imports, manufacturing, and manual labor. The people will use these goods to both sell and purchase. The country can export these goods to other countries that may want them.
