How does a wasteful heat pump powered by fossil-fuel electricity help in decarbonizing buildings while extreme carbonizing rural areas where powerplants are?

It doesn't, it is just another fad by electric industries and oil/coal companies to advance their sales of electric crap with none or negative impact to the atmosphere.

Pretend you are an environmentalist while you reproduce oil/coal/elec industrial marketing.

A heat pump running on fossil fuel electricity used for heat (not cooling) is more wasteful than burning wood or coal directly. It contributes much more carbon to the atmosphere, even though it cleans up the air around urban smog centers.

An illusion sold by oil/coal/electric industries as an environmental solution
