Admittedly, the vast majority of India is nowhere near as cold as the vast majority of America. Americans have to spend energy avoiding death by frost much of the year.

Like many living in the southern USA my air conditioning expenses are much higher than my heating expenses, I'm sure many Indians wouldn't mind air conditioning either.

If we were willing to accept India-like population density and energy use, we could all live in the parts of the US where that's not the case.
