65% Say Americans Not Willing To Make Major Lifestyle Changes To Help Environment

What is funny is the warmers all INSIST the sun had nothing to do with but then start blathering about how the down cycle is gonna end soon and the sun will heat up the planet again.
-------------------

That's a load of BS. "Warmers", at least those that know the subject, would NEVER insist that the sun doesn't have something to do with temperature variation. Nice try at distraction, but it's the deniers that INSIST that CO2 doesn't mean a thing. Don't try and fool us with the converse lie!

Oh my what a suprise. Most American are not even willing to make lifestyle changes to help themselves, let alone the ecology.

We are far too lazy, spoiled and shortsighted to make any long term movements to help ourselves.

I think the lazy spoiled people. They are the ones demanding the rest of us live in grass huts to "save the planet" while they live in huge air conditioned mansions.

You see Al Gore's living style lately?

Just about the most idiotic thing posted lately.

No, what the people that would like to see a rational response to a clear and present danger are trying to do is change the way we create energy, even to the point of having a high percentage of us being producers as well as consumers of energy.

It is people like yourself that would go bact to the caves.

Ahh yes Algore makes such an attractive target. Kinda like John Denver having a tank of gasoline on his ranch way back when.
The messenger makes the message invalid?
What about those who never served in the military or never will desiring to make war?
Those who have excellent tax payer funded health care telling others there is no problem with healthcare?

So you believe all men of religion should live in poverty to prove their point about christianity? That a rich preacher should not belittle or pressure those not so fortunate about tithing?

There is no credible evidence we have a serious problem. And yes when the biggest mouth piece for US to go with out LIVES in the manner he lives IT matters.

Well, Sarge, if you believe that we have no serious problem, then you are living in an alternative universe.

65% Say Americans Not Willing To Make Major Lifestyle Changes To Help Environment - Rasmussen Reports

Money quotes:

Voters support offshore oil drilling more than ever, and most don’t agree with President Obama’s decision to limit where that drilling can be done.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that only 17% of adults believe most Americans would be willing to make major cutbacks in their lifestyle in order to help save the environment. Most (65%) say that’s not the case. Another 18% are not sure.

And trust me that 18% that are "not sure" will become very sure if they actually are ordered to give up their way of life. "Not sure" is what you say when you don't want to give your real view to a perfect stranger over the phone.

All this propaganda and yet that many Americans still know it's a pile of BS? That's what you call a major fail.

Too bad envirowackos, but global warming is a big steaming fail.

And for those dupes putting up threads about "OH MY GOSH it's HOT IN APRIL!!!!"

People! In 1982 I left work on the day before Christmas eve in short sleeves in Columbus Ohio because it was 75 degrees. That's 75 degrees at Christmas time! In 1976 we have 80 degree weather in March.

That's 34 YEARS before this spring, and yet we have had hot springs, we have had damn cold springs, and so on.

WE DON'T CONTROL THE WEATHER! Ocean currents, sun spots, and a lot of other crap controls the weather.

GET OVER IT.

There is no need to make major changes, there is zero evidence that this is anything but a cycle. One caused by the Sun Most likely.

What is funny is the warmers all INSIST the sun had nothing to do with but then start blathering about how the down cycle is gonna end soon and the sun will heat up the planet again.

No warming since 1998. 12 years of no increase. It was a cycle.

No warming in 12 years? Are you really that stupid? The last decade was the warmest in the last 180 years. The decade before that, the second warmest, and the decade before that, the third warmest. And this decade, 2010 to 2019, will exceed them all. See a little pattern here?

Pretty simple concept, Provide evidence that the planet has heated up past that achieved in 1998.

And on that note? OwlGore got really steamed at FOX News...It's supposed to be on tonight, and I suspect this topic has ALOT to do with it...LOL.

OwlGore is an elitist, as are those that insist we lower our living standards based upon a false premise, and as you have highlighted...continue their HIGHLIFE. They will try and push Cap N' Tax.

We are actually in a periiod of decreased solar output which is offsetting some of the global warming. When it ends look out. Canada may get really crowded.

He does, but not for just his attitude on climate change.
