According to this, California has twice the power installed than Texas; and Massachusetts, Vermont, Hawaii each have 3.5x the percentage of energy run by solar than Texas.

They have at least 5 months.

Enjoy your summer, Trump supporters: it'll be 120 days until Autumn Equinox.

I saw only one go down.

If he loses in 2024, I kind of hope he runs again in 2028, and if he fails, again in 2032.

He and each of his many supporters.

I was doing the metric equivalent.

The problem is mLs and ounces sound too small.

The good thing about 100 is that in turns mLs and ounces into liters and pounds, or gallons, as the case may be;

but that 100—I like units more than x-number-of-units as the basis of expression.

Nonetheless, I guess its GPHM, LPHKM, GPH, and LPH, until we come up with something better.

Then we have wp:natural gas vehicles and wp:miles per gallon gasoline equivalent, as LNG, CNG, and electric will probably become more common.

If 33.40 kilowatt-hours/mile ≈ 74.71 Mj/km

then if an electric car had an MPG equivalent of 40,

it'd be 0.835 kilowatt-hours/mile ≈ 1.87 Mj/km

"x ℓ/100"

maybe.

maybe "x mL/km" ("x milliliters/km")—as in "80 mL/km"

or

maybe "x kL/Mm" ("x kiloliters/megameters")—as in 0.8 kL or 800ℓ/Mm"

I have to think about it. 🤔

Good point, but GPHM has more syllables, and GPM makes it sound small;

but still, maybe 50, 25, 15, and 10 MPG could be expressed as 0.02, 0.04, <0.07, and 0.1 GPM.

Much of the West is north of Tallahassee, Florida: Delhi isn't.

Why would they want to help turn their country into a sauna when they don't have to?

That's 116.6°F, and apparently Delhi is about twice the size and population of NYC.
