When has the USA been a positive otherwise? I honestly can’t think of anything. And in WW2, they ended it by dropping 2 nukes to intimidate the Soviet Union and also stole all the credit from the Soviet Union.
Pressured UK/Israel to back off during the Suez Crisis. Sanctioning Apartheid South Africa. Sometimes made legitimate moves towards detente and nuclear deproliferation. Uhhh… exported all their means of production to China chasing short term profits?
My understanding is CFC regulations to protect the ozone started in the US. It was the University of California that first started studying the longevity of chlorofluorocarbons in the upper atmosphere, and the U.S. National Academy of Sciences that first published the ozone depletion hypothesis. Six years later, the US was among the first countries to start to limit the use of CFCs.
Literally the only thing I can think of, and the CFC replacements are actually forever chemicals so it’s kind of a mixed bag…
More like 99% of the time post WW2
