A Record Number of Americans Think Global Warming is Exaggerated

  People are beginning to realize that global warming is a hoax. According to this poll a record number of Americans believe the issue of global warming is being exaggerated. While they may be unwilling to call it an outright hoax, probably because they don’t want to seem uncaring, it is nevertheless good news that people are beginning to second guess what they are hearing reported on this issue. The more the people question what they hear on global warming the more people will realize they are being scammed.

  While there is still a majority of people who are falling victim to the hype the number is falling. And it is falling drastically.

As recently as 2006, significantly more Americans thought the news underestimated the seriousness of global warming than said it exaggerated it, 38% vs. 30%. Now, according to Gallup’s 2009 Environment survey, more Americans say the problem is exaggerated rather than underestimated, 41% vs. 28%.

  In 2006, 38% of the people believed that seriousness of global warming was being underestimated compared to just 30% who felt the seriousness of global warming was overestimated.

  In this latest poll the trend has not only reversed, it has significantly reversed. The amount of people who feel the seriousness of the problem is underestimated has fallen by 10% to 28% while the number of people who believe the seriousness of the problem is overestimated has risen to 41%.

  This is a complete turnaround in the minds of the American people on the issue of global warming. I think that it is directly attributed to the alarmists overplaying their hand.

  In the effort to scare the American people into paying higher taxes and fees, and also coercing them into giving up personal liberties before it is too late to save the planet the alarmists have pushed to far. All you have to do is search this blog to see many of the ludicrous things that the alarmists have blamed on global warming.

  The alarmists went overboard on not only what causes global warming but also what will happen because of global warming. They passed from the merely ridiculous arguments into the absolutely insane arguments and they are beginning to make people question the issue as well as their motives for pushing the issue so vehemently.

  People are beginning to question the authorities on this issue but the question remains, is it too little too late? With this president in the White House, a global warming believer and cap and trade proponent, do we have time to stem the tide of the higher taxes that are bound to come our way in the name of saving the planet?

  Our numbers may be growing but I fear it is too late.
