Actually that's been a complaint from the right concerning Al Gore: that his policies and desires were (are?) at odds with American business specifically, and would reduce productivity and competitiveness at home. If you do take the stance that environmental policies disrupt business, then I think it would be entirely self consistent for a Gore-funded flamethrower project to be directed at Big Business in America. It'd play like a conservative think-tank propaganda project, but maybe that's what you went for?

Oil Consumption by capita.
(dated 2004)Totals there too. Amirica first.
Canada and USA are using the most oil per capita of the big countries. Before some 'smaller' countries and oil producing countries.
China is at this list ranked as 125#, Canada and USA standing 13# and 15#. Most european countries are clearly using less, coming from harsh energie policies in europe, I don't think north america is familiair with CO2-tax or buying CO2 rights.
I didn't knew that it would involve that major differences. North america is just using more then double of the oil per capita.
Using more then 14 times that of china, imagine china using as much per capita. Imagine the oil price.
