There is only 1 earth. We all live on it. We are all obligated to make it last as long as we can. We need to think about this in terms of discretionary income. If the US has the means to reduce the effects of man made climate change, how much of its resources should be devoted to that. Some say a lot, some say none. We can not compare ourselves to other countries who can't even afford to feed their citizens. Those countries that can help, should help. It is a matter of priorities. Does your country want to cut taxes, or save the planet ?
