According to the World Bank[0], the US produces 75% more CO² per $1000 of economic output than the EU.
The US should be able to reduce that inefficiency delta to just over 5% by cutting CO² emissions by 40% without any impact on luxury whatsoever. This alone would cut worldwide CO² emissions by about 5.73%.
