I'm typically not excited about results of a poll, and I won't be about this one. However, it does seem to me that considering the finality of the debate, the screeching of the Anthropogenic Global Warming Alarmists, and the pronouncements of the Goreacle, there is still considerable doubt among the general populace about the validity and potential impact of global warming, natural or man caused.
From the Beeb: 'Scepticism' over climate claimsOne passage in the article that I disagree with: There was a feeling the problem was exaggerated to make money, it found.
The public believes the effects of global warming on the climate are not as bad as politicians and scientists claim, a poll has suggested.
The Ipsos Mori poll of 2,032 adults - interviewed between 14 and 20 June - found 56% believed scientists were still questioning climate change.
[...]
The survey suggested that terrorism, graffiti, crime and dog mess were all of more concern than climate change.
It's not an effort to make money. It's an effort to punish western nations for their wealth, especially the United States, to give politicians an opportunity to erode our freedoms and exercise control. The global warming alarmists are becoming desperate as they see the window of opportunity closing as more of their claims are debunked and people become aware of their scheme.
Considering this appears to be a poll of Brits, I have even greater hope that the American people are going to eventually reject the global warming alarmists.
Evidently, the debate is not over.
