Younger Republican Voters Refuse to Deny Climate Change

well when you grow up with a bunch of people shouting OHMYGODWE'REALLGONNADIE it becomes hard to escape it.

Or perhaps they looked at the mountain of evidence that tells them what is happening.

Novel concept I know.
 
It would appear that the Republican youth and young adults are buying into climate change in a big way.
Could it be that they feel they have an interest in the issue that their elders do not?

As in, they are going to be around to deal with the consequences?


Climate Could Be an Electoral Time Bomb, Republican Strategists Fear

When election time comes next year, Will Galloway, a student and Republican youth leader at Clemson University, will look for candidates who are strong on the mainstream conservative causes he cares about most, including gun rights and opposing abortion.
But there is another issue high on his list of urgent concerns that is not on his party’s agenda: climate change.
“Climate change isn’t going to discriminate between red states and blue states, so red-state actors have to start engaging on these issues,” said Mr. Galloway, 19, who is heading into his sophomore year and is chairman of the South Carolina Federation of College Republicans. “But we haven’t been. We’ve completely ceded them to the left.”

Nearly 60 percent of Republicans between the ages of 23 and 38 say that climate change is having an effect on the United States, and 36 percent believe humans are the cause. That’s about double the numbers of Republicans over age 52.
But younger generations are also now outvoting their elders. According to a Pew Research Center analysis, voters under the age of 53 cast 62.5 million votes in the 2018 midterm elections. Those 53 and older, by contrast, were responsible for 60.1 million votes.
“Americans believe climate change is real, and that number goes up every single month,” Frank Luntz, a veteran Republican strategist, told a Congressional panel recently. He also circulated a memo to congressional Republicans in June warning that climate change was “a G.O.P. vulnerability and a G.O.P. opportunity.”
A new Harvard University survey of voters under the age of 30 found that 73 percent of respondents disapproved of Mr. Trump’s approach to climate change (about the same proportion as those who object to his handling of race relations). Half the respondents identified as Republican or independent.
“Here’s another gap between our party and younger voters,” said a recent report by a Republican polling firm, Public Opinion Strategies. Speaking of younger Republicans, the firm concluded that “climate change is their most important issue” and called the numbers “concerning” for the party’s future.
Naïve people have been feed Climate Change fear for more than a generation now
More and more and more until in the entire world only GOP dupes deny. Watch the weather for crying out loud LOL....
People can be convinced of near everything. This is a global tax scam. You azzes wonder why we have more issues then we should. Most people protesting for this are not very smart or are pure leaches. We need to realize there are 8 billion of us living in most places of the world that can be affected by natural events. After the tax is enacted we will have "limited success" shoved to us with some or more being fudged numbers and the rulers will say it is better then nothing. This is a tax to give to poorer nations.Nations that progs say are nit shitholes.
Your brainwashed support for greedy idiot GOP billionaires and polluters in the face of obvious global warming is touching....
I am tired of shysters taking my money. They don't even pretend to live the life they promote for others. If there is a global climate change by your words, humans have very little to do with it. And most pollution is not the same as global climate change. You want socialism/communism. Make it pure and everyone lives near the same. Everyone! Kill those who are massively corrupted. That ain't happening. Globalism must take the United States down a few pegs and it is. When our influence is done you will see what has been wrought. There are to many people who spout to us... Do as I say, not as I do. And yes, some of it is justified for the masses. But we passed that point a long time ago. You are going to kill billions of people with your agendas.

Everyone except brainwashed GOP functional morons around the world and all the scientists who are not bought off 99% say man-made global warming is happening. Globalism is simply the natural effect of transportation communication progress. And is a good thing. But you have to invest in education and training for the good jobs that all these new markets give us oh, and Republicans won't do that or give us good infrastructure because they have to save their greedy idiot billionaire Masters from paying their fair share in taxes. Google the only tax graph you need to know. If you count all taxes we have a flat tax system which is a huge giveaway to the rich and a screw job for everyone else. We now have the worst inequality and upward Mobility ever and anywhere in the modern world. The things I want which is faire capitalism with a good safety net, known as socialism for everyone except you idiots will help float all boats except the super rich who are ridiculously bloated after 35 years of GOP tax rates. so I want higher taxes on the rich and Health Care daycare paid parental leave great vacations infrastructure and the cheap education and training for the 7 million jobs that are going begging. This is GOP idiocy at the moment, only possible with the big lie propaganda machine. change the channel sometime read a newspaper not published by Rupert Murdoch also.

So franco since you cant answer the last question, if Global warming is real why are banks lending money/investing in beach front condominiums in Florida???

When the ocean rises and floods the shoreline, the investors go belly-up, the banks seize all the investor’s holdings & life goes on.

If the left wants the public to buy into climate change, the Dem leaders and Celebrity spokespeople have to start acting like they believe it themselves. It is that simple. So long as folks like Obama and others are buying Ocean front mansions, fly in private jets, and live luxurious lifestyles, the average person wont buy in. Until they start downsizing, moving off the coast and get serious about the issue, I have to assume they don't take the threat very seriously themselves. They need to lead by example, but for some reason, they choose not to do so.

They never walk their talk!

That's a stupid, transparent , nonsensical excuse you have invented for yourself.

And besides, it's sacrilegious to realistically criticize the Global Warming Church.
Right?

I dont give a shit about your using politization of global warming as an excuse (while politicizing it constantly yourself; that's a cute little game you have rigged up for yourself). The science says what it says, and scientists have told us what actions they think we must take to meet each of a list of targets.

You can say you don't give a shit, or say you do. Those are the only two real choices you have, at the fundamental level.

The science was politicized under Obama for 8 years! Clinton, too!
Oppose global warming, therefore no Gov't grants for them.
Gawd, you've had too many brain injuries.

No just really stupid, brainwashed functional moron. GOP is the only political party in the world that denies and brainwashes the dupes into it too. The GOP and you dupes are totally dominated by Big oil big health big Pharma and Wall Street.

Then tell me, why don't the those who publicly warn us of climate change issues take it seriously themselves? What nonsensical excuse have the Obama's and others invented to exempt themselves from taking their own advice?

If the left can't answer this question directly, they will never gain the public support they need to push the agenda.

I think they do. This problem will be addressed with policy and smart economics...not by asking people to stop travelling, or to stop eating. I find your question completely irrelevant. And if you decide the truth of climate science by who flies where, then you are acting like a moron. .
