Life Expectancy and Energy Consumption: Countries and U.S. States - an Update

All of a sudden, I wanted to update my old post with the latest data. So I did using the year 2010 data. Below, I'm presenting a summary plot first, and then you can find the data table.
In general, as you can easily observe from the figure, longer-living people consume more energy. However, the U.S. states look different. The slope of the trend line is negative in the United States.
