Climate change is a lower priority for Americans than other national issues. While a majority of adults view climate change as a major threat, it is a lower priority than issues such as strengthening the economy and reducing health care costs.

Overall, 37% of Americans say addressing climate change should be a top priority for the president and Congress in 2023, and another 34% say it’s an important but lower priority. This ranks climate change 17th out of 21 national issues included in a Center survey from January.

This is what happens when ordinary peoples opinions are taken into account. Here is the irony. This is from NPR also referencing to the Pew survey.

That dissonance also shows up in another finding from the survey: the majority of Americans say the Southwest, coastal Florida and Southern California are going to become worse areas to live over the next 30 years because of climate change. Yet those regions include some of the fastest-growing places in the country.
Surveys are not facts, hurricanes, floods and wild fires are.

Banhammer dropped. Hopefully you'll stop trolling on your return in six months.
