I would love to see a comparison of the average amount of trash (especially plastic waste) the average American homeowner produces vs the average European homeowner. I bet the difference is astonishing.
But probably everything-consumption is really high, with a toxic transportation system (sand for roads), land use, electronics use (rare earths), etc. Fucking up the planet is the easiest way to increase GDP.
