here you go. This is why you get funny feelings.

that’s not quite right and mixes couple things

you have production losses and transmission losses. then you have waste heat used for household and industrial heating.

now you would also have to produce that portion electrically.

For instance in winter heating requirements of a typical house are 2x that of the electricity used.

electricity is’t the majority of the energy consumed in nearly any country.

it’s a easy way to keep confusing less vigilant people by calling electricity as energy.

Just call things the way they are.

yeah but there is no way to verify that they don’t. It’s all just trust/belief based.

then the VPN provider knows.

probably a bike. he forgot the CO2 emissions through cal burn.
