B. "More solar energy shines on the surface of the Earth each day than is consumed globally (Burr et al, 2014)."

This is the statement that presents relevant evidence. In this sentence, we learn that the energy that the Earth receives from the Sun is much more than the one we actually use. This is a very relevant piece of information, because it shows that using solar energy to create electricity is a very possible and realistic idea, and that it is current being neglected.
