Why does half of America think Scientists aren't in consensus on the cause of Climate Change?

As you point out, it is mostly political, led by people who have something to lose by more conservation rules, and less use of fossil fuels. I'm with Jon Huntsman on this subject. Reduction in carbon emission lessens profits for big business, and as we know profits are what business is all about.

People like Rush Limbaugh who know little of science and ecology of the earth, fuel the flames against anything that limits profits. It's all about the money, but many ordinary people seem willing to believe whatever their party tells them to. Masters degree in physical science.

Because liberals confuse the issue with propaganda and politicize the science. If we let scientists do their job instead of trying to pretend Al Gore is a scientist, quit falsifying data and quit blackballing people who disagree, maybe people could understand what's going on better.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
