Can someone explain to the difference between "by area" and "by percentage", please?
Certainly, if "by area" is "state with the most unforested land", then it's not Delaware (a small state), it's either a Dakota or California/Texas/Alaska (just by virtue of being huge).
Alaska would beat California and Texas combined with sheer acreage.
I cannot figure out what their metric was.
Realized that as you were typing and edited my comment.
