While 97 percent of scientists may agree mankind is driving global warming, 97 percent of Americans don’t seem to care about the issue when stacked up against other concerns such as terrorism or the economy, according to a recent Fox News poll. A November Fox News poll of more than 1,000 registered voters found that only 3 percent listed “climate change” as the most important issue facing the country today, down from 5 percent in August. Americans were much more worried about terrorism, the economy and immigration than global warming. Even among Democrats concern for global warming was low. The Fox poll found only 6 percent of Democrats listed global warming as their top concern, compared to 1 percent of Republicans. Men were slightly more likely than women to list global warming as their top concern, and whites were more likely than blacks to worry about warming. http://dailycaller.com/2015/11.....bout-global-warming/ |
| We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works. |

Yet another Bumbler post that makes no sense. |

Actually, it does... Obama essentially said that having the conference in Paris would be in defiance of ISIS His quote: “We stand united in solidarity not only to deliver justice to the terrorist network responsible for those attacks but to protect our people and uphold the enduring values that keep us strong and keep us free. And we salute the people of Paris for insisting this crucial conference go on…What greater rejection of those who would tear down our world than marshaling our best efforts to save it?” |

The fact that they held the climate change summit is a shot at ISIS. The summit could have been about trade, Syrian refugees, or any other topic. The point being that the terrorist attacks in Paris didn't impact this meeting, no matter what it's topic. |

It's amusing to watch Climate Change Deniers around the world. They are a minority, of course but a noisy, minority. Among Climate Change Deniers... the USA comes in 4th in the world.
Quoted Text
Published in the journal Global Environmental Change, the study found: ~ 17 percent of Australians were “climate skeptics.” ~ Norwegians come in second at 15 percent, ~ followed by New Zealanders at 13 percent ~ and then Americans at 12 percent. ~ The UK tied for fifth with Sweden and Finland, at 10 percent ~ The lowest ranked country was Spain, at two percent.

I wonder if Bumbler understands the concept of a "tipping point"? |
