Rasmussen has done another poll of registered voters about their
views on global warming, just three months after a surprise
revelation that more believe that natural causes drive climate
than humans.
Rasmussen has done another poll of registered voters about their
views on global warming, just three months after a surprise
revelation that more believe that natural causes drive climate
than humans. Here are the findings reported Friday:
Climate change caused by planetary trends: 48%
Climate changed caused by human activity: 34%
Other reason: 7%
Aren’t sure: 11%
Compare that to responses reported on January 19:
Climate change caused by planetary trends: 44%
Climate changed caused by human activity: 41%
Other reason: 7%
Aren’t sure: 9%
So in the space of just three months, the percentage of those
polled who believe humans drive climate change dropped seven
percentage points from an already low 41 percent, while those who
are confident that natural causes influence climate more
increased by four percentage points.
If this represented an actual election it would be called a
landslide of historic proportions. I mean really — only one-third
of people believe humans are the chief cause of climate change?
Anyone ready to cave in to EPA, Waxman or
the president on this issue ought to have his head examined.
