Despite the best efforts of Al Gore and his legion of leftist alarmists, most Americans believe that global warming is a natural thing.
According to Rasmussen reports, only one out of three voters believe global warming is caused by human activity.
Forty-eight percent (48%) of all likely voters attribute climate change to long-term planetary trends, while seven percent (7%) blame some other reason. Eleven percent (11%) aren’t sure.
Most Democrats (51%) still say humans are to blame for global warming, the position taken by former Vice President Al Gore and other climate change activists. But 66% of Republicans and 47% of adults not affiliated with either party disagree.
With the Obama administration pushing for more initiatives and 100's of billions of tax payer dollars into clean energy, one could come to the conclusion that people are seeing a huge waste of their hard earned money being spent in the name of something that doesn't exist.
It has gotten so bad that most of these alarmists, including Al Gore, won't even debate the issue anymore, presumably because they will be shown as the charlatans that they are.
Now I'm all for clean energy, but this is not the economy to spend this kind of money in. Clean energy will take decades before it will really come into it's own and still won't prevent the need for fossil fuels.
By the way, did you know that Antartic ice is growing and not shrinking? Another shot for the alarmists...
