I've been looking for something like this article, too - a good starting point for a data-based  discussion of sustainability.

Unfortunately, since my house is all-electric, I use up 2/3rds of my allotment right there. I need a couple more people to move in to reduce the per-person rate. Either that, or sell to a family and build something more suitable to a couple.

One thing that occurs to me immediately - does anyone have statistics at-hand concerning the proportion of energy used by industry (writ large) vs. residences?

If you can live in less space than you are using ... why not move out of those rooms and close them up in the middle of the winter and/or summer (whichever is the high watt season for your part of the world)?
