Republicans say: global warming is crap

Much has changed since then, both in terms of the public profile of climate change and the growing certainty of mainstream scientists that humans are to blame. So the magazine recently repeated the poll. The result?Just 13% of the respondents said yes. (link).

So as the evidence for global warming increases, Republicans are actually getting more sceptical. Why?

It’s true that some Republicans are in the pay of the energy industry, but this doesn’t explain the phenomenon entirely. Even the energy industry, after all, is beginning to accept the scientific consensus. It seems, rather, that Republican scepticism on global warming is simply, just what they feel obliged to believe to distinguish themselves from Democrats and Commy lefties.
