      For those who don’t want to guess: Guam and Puerto Rico were counted as states.

        What are they trying to do with that map? Why not just use a regular map so LA isn’t west of TX?

          People try and make maps of the states where everyone is equal sized a lot for graphics because it’s hard to label smaller states in an easily readable way. This messed up the geography though as seen above.

        That looks pretty blue (off the top of my British head).

        I like to shit on GOP states as much as anyone… But the southern states are all already going to have A/C in most buildings. While I realize that isn’t the same, and heat pumps are more versatile. There isn’t nearly as much need as there is in say Maine or Washington, additionally most buildings in the south are designed to keep heat out and stay cool because it’s always gotten and stayed hot there.

          The fact that southern states already have A/C is even more of a reason they should be leading the charge towards heat pumps. Industry-standard practice around here being to install entire natural gas furnaces instead of just adding a damn reversing valve to the A/C we were always gonna install anyway is just flat-out moronic.

      That’s the whole conservative deal: they’re not for doing things.
