Americans increasingly see climate change as a crisis, poll shows

A growing number of Americans describe climate change as a crisis, and two-thirds say President Trump is doing too little to tackle the problem.

The results, from a poll conducted by The Washington Post and the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF), point to a growing disconnect between Americans worried about the warming planet and Trump administration officials, who have aggressively scaled back Obama-era environmental regulations and relinquished the nation’s role as a global leader in pushing for climate action.

Of course, the fascist corporate media that endlessly pushes the Climate Change Hoax does not allow for any alternative viewpoints. How would average people know anything else? The Climate Change Hoax is just like the total suppression of Obama's Nazis in Ukraine, Obama's Al Qaeda thugs in Syria and the phony Russiagate hoax. And Trump's Soleimani hoax.

It's good to know that you MMTers are all on side of the gaslighters, Deep State spies and war criminals. But that was obvious long ago by your relentless support of the .1% and their fiat funny money looting schemes.

Good to know that Roddis has internet access at his anger management facility.

In your neighborhood, is that considered a rebuttal argument?

Americans increasingly do not learn of repeated record snow events. Climate fraudsters certainly won't tell them.

Meanwhile other parts of the world has no winter at all. Record high temperatures. But does that bother Roddis? Nah. He’s found a place where there’s snow. I bet it’s a real free market place too.

I'm Canadian. I'm very familiar with winter.

Here is the current snow cover in North America:

Notice there is less snow on the ground in the US Midwest stretching into the Canadian prairies. One of the reasons for this is temperature. Where it is colder it snows less. Much of the polar region is classified as a desert for the same reason. When these regions become warmer, more precipitation in the form of snow can be expected.

Roddis seems to think that temperature is the same as climate. Oh well...
