Unfortunately, at least with the first point, this is true for a lot of people, and governments. This "they're not doing it, so why should I?" is a common justification, and is expressed in goverments who are pressured into ignoring environmental concerns because it could impact short term gains. India noted at the UN climate summit it had no intention of taking steps to move off coal power and that was a problem for others [1]. Granted, I agree it seems far-fetched to think this would extend so much as to aggravate the destruction of the earth's environment as stated above.
