Default The party of stupids.

A Gallup poll released Wednesday shows just how resistant some
Republicans are to the science of climate change. In polling conducted
over the past five years, 59 percent of self-identified conservative
Republicans said they don't believe that climate change is happening
now, and 70 percent said they don't believe humans are responsible for it.

Gallup asked about 6,000 Americans of diverse political ideologies
whether the effects of global warming would be felt in their lifetimes,
in future generations or not at all.

Forty percent of conservative Republicans deny that global warming will
ever happen, while an additional 19 percent believe that will only
affect future generations. However, a May 2014 governmental report found
climate change is affecting all areas of the United States.

Although there's a wide scientific consensus that climate change is
caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, most
conservative Republicans reject the idea that there is a link between
pollution and rising temperatures. *They are the only political group to
have a majority not believe in the connection.*

Leaders within the party have also voiced skepticism about climate
change. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who is running for the 2016 Republican
ticket, has said he does not believe in global warming. Presidential
candidate Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida has said he doesn't believe humans
cause climate change. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, a potential
candidate, has said he isn't convinced either.

Gallup used live telephone interviews to reach both landlines and cell
phones of a random sample of 6,154 adults from across the country. These
results represent the aggregated responses from 2010 to 2015.

And you combine global warming and human caused global warming as one and
the same. Must be stock and trade of J school.
