According to a study at Yale University, Global Warming Doubters are quickly increasing their numbers. But at least the science is settled, although only 42% of Americans believe it.

    The latest survey, taken in November 2013, finds that the majority of Americans — 63 percent — do believe in climate change, and 53 percent are "somewhat" or "very" worried about the consequences.

    Considering the one-sided non-stop mantra from our "educators" for the past 20+ years, I'm shocked at how low those numbers are. BTW, they used to be much higher.

    Watch out, your liberal condescending know-it-all attitude is showing.

    I think that is a pretty good take. I just didn't think your original post had numbers that matched your link.

    As collegedoog points out, 63% of Americans are gullible stupid fucks.

    Does the climate change? Yes

    Does man effect it? Yes

    How much? TBD

    Is it the crisis of our time that we need to buy shitty lightbulbs to fix? Hell no

    Get the science to the point where we can look at what can be done at what cost to what effect and we can talk.

    Look at China and realize the USA is the world leader in ecology, clean energy, and technology. The chicken littles can go fuck themselves.

    We really needed another thread on this

    The accessibility of far right websites like Breitbart, redstate.com, etc has a lot to do with it.

    Yes it sucks that free thought has an outlet now to combat the group think of the state media. Maybe put them in camps. I mean, MSNBC is what we all should watch

    I'm assuming you've never read a comment section on Breitbart.com

    A comment from a recent article on Breitbart:

    "You see, without this subtle distinction the warming/climate change nutters will have a field day so they can throw out things like "97% of scientists think that there is global warming". And I believe that number, 97% do think it exists, but, it doesn't mean the 97% think it's man made and it will end in the polar ice caps melting, etc.

    You can put me on the side of the "deniers"."

    Except that 97% figure is actually the percentage of scientists, whose papers took a position on global warming, found that it was man made.


    http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/capital-weather-gang/wp/2013/05/17/97-percent-of-scientific-studies-agree-on-manmade-global-warming-so-what-now/

    These people are really, really, really, stupid.
