AGW Today: Believers Losing Faith
As we here in Central North Carolina witness first hand global warming cooling in the form of a nice snow storm (yeah, weather. And weather creates climate), more and more people are having issues with AGW
American voters are losing faith in the theory that human activity is causing global warming, a Rasmussen poll released Monday says.
The poll asked 1,000 likely voters whether global warming was “caused primarily by human activity or by long term planetary trends.” Only 41 percent said it was human activity, while 44 percent said it was long-term planetary trends. Seven percent said it was “some other reason,” and nine percent said they were not sure.
This is a significant shift from a poll conducted last April in which 47 percent said human activity caused global warming and only 34 percent said long term planetary trends caused it.
And the poll breaks it down by Party affiliation, with, yup! way more Democrats drinking the koolaid (but never actually doing anything themselves to reduce their carbon footprint) then Republicans.
Consensus denial by Believers in 3….2….1….

I really think the whole CO2 thing is way over exaggerated, but what about the pacific coast? We’re going through a record heat wave, so then most likely of course people here would say the opposite of those in the east.
True. But it is primarily natural forces, the Earth and the Sun, have created that situation. You also have issues such as the cities which change local weather patterns. The Urban Island Effect.
