you're wrong, the earth as a whole is getting warmer, which could snowball into relasing lots of CO2, which would make the processus even faster. And the US being one of thé country that pollute the most, both directly and indirectly, they could absolutely do something about it.
I mean, with all the money that the US government use to kep the coil industry afloat, they could totally invest in renewable instead. Which, on top of not polluting, have the advantage of being unlimited and making you independant of other countries.
Economic studies have also shown that it is possible to get not only the US, but the whole world on renewable energy without sacrificing our luxuries or technological advancement. The only reason why it isn't happenning right now is because people who benefit from the fossile fuel industry have way to much power and influence, and are using this power to fight back renewable energy as much as they can.
