It's fun to pick on Americans (I'm one of them) but a lot of Middle Eastern countries and their citizens are also hellbent God worshipers who deny climate change. And basically most countries' government actions show they don't really care about it either. Singapore is really the only one that comes to mind for leading the way to try and make change, but they're too small to make any measurable change by themselves.
Most of these middle eastern countries are not democratic and what their population thinks doesn’t matter. USA can’t take any actions against climate change specifically because of its citizens.
Also USA is at the center of power where it can do a lot of improvements but choose not to. So it’s natural that USA should bear the brunt of criticism.
