Answer 9

Why and How its not to simple with USA espccialy now with the economy a bit slow down I think they wont reduce it for a while

Answer 10

The american government is basically a board of corporate leaders. They make choices to allow their own interests to prosper. They do not care about the people. They care about power and personal economy. There are some working towards a cleaner future, but not many. And it will be this way until they see that another group is gaining power due to the peoples prayers being answered. Once the republicans see that they will lose without a sustainable development/ecological line of sight, they will say that that is what they have to. But then, the people will be lied to again.

Answer 12

"America" isn't one person, it's many millions of people.  There are some that do their best to reduce carbon emissions, be kinder to the environment, and recycle.  Likewise, there are others that for whatever reasons, either can't or don't make those changes.  Unfortunately, it takes many millions doing the same thing in order to make a noticable impact.
