SHOCK POLL FROM GREAT BRITAIN-MAJORITY DOUBT "CLIMATE CHANGE" IS CAUSED BY HUMANS

     This poll shock from Great Britain:

The majority of the British public is still not convinced that climate change is caused by humans - and many others believe scientists are exaggerating the problem, according to an exclusive poll for The Observer.

The results have shocked campaigners who hoped that doubts would have been silenced by a report last year by more than 2,500 scientists for the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which found a 90 per cent chance that humans were the main cause of climate change and warned that drastic action was needed to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

     If the environmentalists can't sell this stuff in Great Britain, imagine how depressing this must be for them when it comes to considering their sales pitch in the even more-skeptical USA. 

     This is especially the case when you consider that he campaign of fear about "global warming", recognizing the slim evidence for that phenomenon, has now retreated to the use of the euphemism "climate change"-- which, of course, could mean warming, cooling, or really any change at all.  Since the Earth's climate has been changing for eons, resorting to "climate change" as a campaign cry may be arousing suspicions in people that the cry simply represents a stealth attempt to increase government control over our lives.
