You can also see it this way : As you're living in the US, you have access to more tools, money and power in order to have a greater impact towards addressing environmental issues on a large scale.
for instance the mere fact that you have access to Internet provides you with the possibility to impact many people's lifes.
You can also use some of your money to build projects promoting environmental protection, which would be easier than if you had less access to physical wealth.
These are just some examples to illustrate my point : you can choose to see your situation in a negative or positive way without necessarily being in a state of denial.
