true, but you can compare them, if you use the same measuring length.

  The World Factbook gives Norway’s coastline as being 80% as long as the length it gives for the United States’, and the WRI gave the same percentage as about 40%. Contrary to this, the article claims Norway’s coastline is 150% of that of the US. I doubt this figure, and no source is given. EDIT: I misread — the article’s actual percentage is a far more reasonable 67%. I withdraw my objection.
