Could you give me links websites to get nice statistics on energy consumptions?

Question

You know interesting ones like :

the amount of money wasted in lighting light a light bulb a day is enough to feed 20 homeless people...

I'm trying to make a 'fun' presentation for kids on energy and why we are doomed and need to utilize renewable energy sources, mainly solar power( I would like statistics on that too...)

thanks!!!
