    1. Welcome refugees from all over the world to the United States! American illegal immigrants first, black people first! Thank you Biden.

    2. @lamonike msanii Welcome refugees from all over the world to the United States! American illegal immigrants first, black people first! Thank you Biden.

    1. EXACTLY….I dont think kids know what a sledge is never mind having been on one, but why would they if we havent had a good snowfall thats lasted more than a day in the last 20 years. Well there was ONE winter about ten years back that reminded me of my youth back in the seventies.

  1. Yet only 15% are willing to do anything about it. Consuming less unnecessary stuff, would Cramp America’s style.

  2. I hate to say it but it’s too little too late. We should’ve gotten on this *for real* at least 25 years ago.

    Really glad I have no kids.

    1. this is a bad take. everyone isnt going to just die one day. it’ll be like the pandemic.. we’ll ignore it until it really starts having devastating consequences that really cant be ignored anymore because the economy will be in ruins. and then poor people will get screwed while the rich will be fine, and they’ll slowly do just enough to fix the economy and continue getting rich, and life will go on.

    2. When you continue to deny science, you’ll need another planet that does not exist yet. Don’t s*it where you eat.

  3. Hope Biden’s executive orders do succeed because the GOP won’t sit quietly and let this happen after suing Biden for pausing deportation.

  4. It’s so odd that you even took this poll….lThe climate crisis is not dependent on people’s opinion. Follow the Science people! Science not opinion!

    1. @Bob Davis I never said anything about minimum wage. I agree a contractor earns more than fast food. I don’t know how minimum wage will affect pay by the job. I hope it doesn’t negatively affect you and I hope you and your company can find (more) success with the advent of the clean energy industry.

    2. @Charlie Brown I hope that the technology of clean energy provides long-term and permanent jobs as the industry grows. I don’t wish the loss of income on anyone. (I used to be a park ranger, had to move, and have been unable to get back into the field now because of my age. So I now work in retail. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, but at least I have a job that pays the bills and allowed me to raise my son.)

      All I know is that we have to protect the land. That is what has made this country great. And we must learn to share the planet with other species. So stewardship is of utmost importance. If we all do our part, we can make this work.

    3. @A Morfus won’t help us we run on diesel. Isn’t a battery made that will do what a diesel will. And $15 minimum will mean pay raises across the board which will mean cost of living will rise across the board there for doing nothing but devaluing The dollar but I’m no Guinness.

    4. @A Morfus where are the jobs oh in 20 yrs from now wake up 90% of what’s in your house now is made of oil all solar panels and wind sources made from oil products

    1. Yes. Which is why it blows my mind so many dems are against our only viable, clean option to get to net zero green house emissions from power generation: nuclear power. That is the best answer we have to combat climate change. Why are we not backing this so aggressively??? It blows my fucking mind. As an engineer, I nearly rip my hair out that we haven’t backed this completely and gotten our emissions from energy generation to zero. IT BLOWS MY FUCKING MIND!!!!!

  5. Please, please don’t mention the midterms. We literally just concluded an election cycle. Haven’t the American people suffered enough?

  6. Biden’s slogan should have been Make America Smart Again. Scientists and experts making decisions based on facts and agency heads with knowledge and experience. So normal but bizarre compared to last 4 years on the crazy train.
