Starving polar bear on ice melting from climate change. Wikipedia.
Why is it that the US government and Americans tolerate an increasing danger to their lives and the health of the natural world from the burning of petroleum, natural gas, and coal?

And yet the entire economy and society are hooked on burning the very substances that are causing local and global harm.
