This Photo shows an area of Dubai with housing and also commercial. A lot of Air conditioners can be seen on the roofs of the houses. Due to the climate in Dubai there is no way to live in summer without air condition. Everything has to be cooled down, food, production places, shopping areas, offices. Therefore a lot of energy is consumed. There is hardly any rain in this part of the world, all the green has to be watered by irrigation systems. These of course work with electricity (the pumps). Due to the heat it is hard to move by foot or bike, so there is a lot of cars that consume oil and the metro, tram which consume electricity again.
