Climate Denial: Are you a Luke-Warmer?
Manage episode 413048401 series 2801733
Most people are not climate deniers. It is an unreasonable and frankly, a stupid position to take.
Recent polling shows that the majority (73%) of Americans strongly believe that climate change is happening and that it is caused by humans. You would think that with that much agreement, we would vote in politicians with similar convictions. But we don't. Why? Could Everyday Denial, the denial that virtually every one of us engages in multiple times a day, be even a greater threat than climate denial? In the United States, we have the largest and most influential group of climate deniers the world has ever seen. They are single handedly the greatest threat to human civilization and to life on earth as we know it. Who are they? Could there be a more immediate hazard to our global environment than climate change itself?
Tune in to find the explanations, and more importantly, the answer to what you can do about it.
