In order to find the energy consumption per person per day in kWh, in terms of "Stuff" all items had to be considered. Things that seem not to fit in other categories go into the "Stuff" category. We decided on a few of the items that would use more energy and that are in nearly every household. With that in mind we decided to account for miles of road, computers, cars, cluminum usage, and plastic bottles. For transporting stuff, we found the average amount of energy consumed per ton of cargo according to McKay. Then we simply found out the amount of stuff was is being transported into and out of Hong Kong.
