If I wanted America to fail, I'd let environment-polluting companies spend millions of dollars on a video campaign that cleverly plays with people's subconscious fears.
If I wanted America to fail, I'd place lots of american flags in that video and ensure that blue, red and white are dominant colors in the video and use a melancholic sound track.

In my opinion, the only way for the video to be even more obviously manipulative was if the words "freedom" and "democracy" had been used frequently.

Nobody is going to stop you from believing that there is no environment crisis, that it's all just a strange kind of conspiracy theory made up of environmental extremists. But at least be so rational to accept that the rest of the world is more and more thinking different, even if you believe them all to be manipulated idiots. If they believe that american companies, products like cars etc. are environment-unfriendly, using way too much gasoline etc., they will more and more stop buying them, and THAT's what's really going to cost jobs etc., not some rather irrelevant government policies. So better start becoming more green now, or China and other countries will soon be years ahead when green technology, being "environment-friendly" becomes more and more important to customers.
