(1.) Ok, as long as I understand what you mean. (2.)-(4.) According to this page: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/electricity-consumption-by-country https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/electrici... US electricity consumption is ~1/6.5 of global electricity use (and the ratio has probably dropped since 2017). So, 7% of electricity used in American homes is ~1.48% of total US electricity consumption, but only 0.23% of total consumption. Granted, TV is in wide use throughout the world, but not nearly as much as in the US, I believe. So instead of 6.5, let's divide by... say... 2.5 instead? That's about 0.5% of total consumption. Similar to crypto then :-)

No, your math is very wrong here. If you're trying to adjust the global rate for America being an outlier in tv consumption, you don't get to multiply by their representation in the global supply. That's just flat wrong. Further, even a multiple of 2 isn't really reasonable [1] [2] [3] 1 - https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/which-country-watches-the-most-tv.html https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/which-country-watches-th... 2 - https://china.usc.edu/resources/average%20day#:~:text=ON%20AN%20AVERAGE%20DAY%20in,study%20by%20China%20Central%20Television https://china.usc.edu/resources/average%20day#:~:text=ON%20A.... 3 - https://www.statista.com/statistics/186833/average-television-use-per-person-in-the-us-since-2002/ https://www.statista.com/statistics/186833/average-televisio...
