Us first. The carbon footprint of a US citizen is very high. We can shame others when it gets below average

How about it? I get to move to Memphis, where I no longer need to heat my dwelling in the Winter.

I pay 11.3 cents per k/w for electricy

Natural gas costs 4.71 US/MMBtu

Now

1 MMBTU = 293.07107 kWh

So with ALL of this, electricity is 7 times more expensive than natural gas.

Now, it costs $125 or so per month to heat a house here - Using electricity, that would be $875. Per month.

Only 6.3% Natural Gas.

In a nutshell, I can't afford it. That's ok, I can just to Memphis for my retirement.

This may come as a shock to some, but pretty much nobody outside the US cares what people from the US think about them.

US emissions are ludicrously high per capita but shrinking. The rest of the world's are higher overall and growing.

I'm not sure the mentality that it'd be rude to consider tackling the latter problem unless and until US per capita emissions drop below the global average is going to help the planet.
