* It's really frustrating that the US, one of the world's largest polluters, is not doing much about protecting the environment.

Entities within the United States do plenty to help the environment. Boise Cascade, for instance, is very active in maintaining millions of acres of forest, keeping them safe from fires and other ecological problems. An interesting question you should look into is to find out what percent of pollution in the United States occurs on government land and how much on privately owned land.
