Not just the US. There's currently only a single country that seems serious about reducing climate change, which is China (based purely on what they're saying). And looking at history, we always tend to only react when things impact all of us, or at least many of us. Some examples:
- Vehicle safety
- Smoking
- Asbestos
- Lead
All of this stuff only got limited when it killed many people and even then a lot of proof was necessary to convince countries to do something.
