It's really interesting that about 8 in 10 Americans believe the climate is changing, causing extreme weather.
Gee, now why do you suppose they believe that?
With climate change we don't know if spending 1 trillion or 7 trillion will fix the problem.
We don't know if 100 trillion will fix the problem. The US spends more to clean up our messes than the rest of the world. Do you think the people in China or India are doing anything about it?
Green is a bottomless pit. All the money in the US can't fill it. But as we try, we keep taking more and more money out of circulation and that causes economic grief.
About all we know for sure is it will eventually radical change our climate and make a lot of the earth uninhabitable.
Would you like a couple of links of people saying the exact same thing years ago; predicting that New York would be under water, or that entire countries would disappear?
IMHO, I believe most Americans will certainly endorse doing something but what something turns out to be is anybody's guess.
Of course they will endorse it. Green costs are intrinsic. We pay them without even knowing about it.
Question: Would you like to see us do things for cleaner air and cleaner water?
Most Americans: Uh.......yeah, sure I would!
Honest question: Would you be willing to pay $1,500 a year for cleaner air and cleaner water?
Most Americans: The air and water is fine. I need my money.
