    Those are mild climates. USA has fearsome heat and heavy winters for large areas.

    Nonsense, facts don't support it.

    The big emitter is China, doesn't matter what the USA does now. The next big up and coming emitter will be India.

    It matters very much what Asia does, makes sense it's 2/3 the population of the Earth. It does not matter what the USA or Europe does.

    you're saying two things.

    No, the USA did NOT ground them "because everyone else was doing it."
