Conversely, 31% of Americans don't believe in climate change, which would be over 100 million people. That's pretty concerning. Though I also completely agree that the division is further exacerbated by the media.



20% of Americans believe almost anything under the sun (although it’s a different 20% for each issue). Demanding 100% belief in climate change to accomplish something is not the best strategy.


That's fair, though you need people to understand the facts before you can even start the discussion. And it doesn't help that it's a partisan issue in the USA's broken two-party system, ensuring that the discussion gets nowhere.


Apparently more USAians believe in climate change than evolution. Not sure if it's reassuring or scary.
