It is when we willingly took hegemony of the world economy for the last 80 years, and we at least pretend like this is representative of the interests of americans.
The fact that we clearly haven't been able to implement at least common-sense regulation of use of plastics in consumer industries is a pretty clear indication we are to blame, IMO. We haven't even been able to make it less shitty of a consumer experience, let alone pretend to care about health.
