Answer 2

The USA needs to realize they are not the only country in the world with Debt. Without an earth there will be no USA, so why people think the USA (one of the biggest polluters in the world) should do absolutely nothing to help the environmental issues and leave the rest of the world to deal with it is beyond me. They can start helping by giving there citizens and residents FREE boxes to fill with Paper and glass, Incentives to recycle, tax cuts for recycling, make it easier and make the American people more educated on the environmental issues. The UK offer 100% free energy saving bulbs to all houses in the UK, the more powerful nations should be doing more. EDIT: I just wanted to Edit to say BUD, very good answer. Bravo. Every little helps, it doesn't have to cost Billions from day one.
