Most Americans unwilling to spend $10 per month to fight climate change: Poll
U.S. adults draw the line at one dollar per month

Most Americans are willing to chip in a buck each month to help fight climate change, but they draw the line at $10.

A poll conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs research found that 57 percent of Americans would vote for a $1 fee added to their monthly electricity bill to “combat climate change,” but only 28 percent would agree to pay an additional $10 per month.

“To combat climate change, 57 percent of Americans are willing to pay a $1 monthly fee; 23 percent are willing to pay a monthly fee of $40,” said the analysis released Tuesday. “Party identification and acceptance of climate change are the main determining factors of whether or not people are willing to pay, with Democrats being consistently more inclined to pay a fee.”

The question began with $1, then $10, and rose after that in $10 increments, but a majority of those polled opposed every amount more than $1. By the time the figure reached $100 per month, just 16 percent said yes and 82 percent said no.

Climate change also ranked at the bottom of a list of policy priorities, behind the economy, health care, terrorism, immigration and energy policy.

The lack of interest came even though 71 percent agreed that “climate change is happening.” Of those, 45 percent said it was caused “mostly by human activities.”

The survey was conducted Nov. 14-18 with 1,202 U.S. adults 18 and older from all 50 states, with a plus or minus 3.9 percent margin of sampling error."

We are going to be forced to pay a lot more than that. They will put the screws to people. This is one of their long-planned several pet projects that they prize. They have been waiting for the right time.

A convergence of _____ coming soon to a neighborhood near you, and it ain't a positive word that goes in the blank.

Not even a penny for it.

In fact, I wouldn't give them the 'sweat off my butt crack if they were dying of thirst in the desert' type of "not even".

It's almost painful to the psyche and the teeth from gritting them when I see these dumb shit kids being used as useful idiots (practice for adulthood), by the PTB's who want everyone to pony up money for this whole "Climate Change" crap.

What are they going to do with all that money to stop "Climate Change"?

Throw it at the sun? Lol!

The money will go straight into the elite's pockets and they will now know that they have a new generation of stooges with a 'peasant mentality' that they can manipulate and rule over. V

First off, Bullshit of the 57 percent of Americans are willing to bend over for $1 a month.

Where did they get these numbers?

And yes, the Democrats (like I see in the Seattle area and the very gulty white liberal bastions of the Eastside) are more inclined to pay the fee because they are just that stupid and are like sheep following the herd wherever it goes.

My cats are smarter than some of these Dems I know in the Seattle area.

First off, my cats knew something from birth that the Dems haven't figured out yet, my Furgus AKA The Furglar (sock thief - cashmere only) would tell them this very sage advice.

Furgus would say, "You are to Never Ever Shit Where You Eat". V

LMAO

Why would I give them even 1 cent for something that is a ruse to gain more control and to redistribute what's left of our money to those who don't deserve help?

And as far as any polling, I've learned they are skewed to prove what ever point the one who paid for it wants to show up.

Why do I have the feeling that we will be paying whatever they want us to?

Too many too willing to believe it's needed and those of us who actually know a thing or two, are doomed.

No amount of money will fix their fake climate warming or have any effect in the weather whatsoever.

Nor will it ever help dry up and stop Gov. Jay Inslee's extreme Drooling (literally, that's why he wears ties, better off with a baby bib).


Watching him try to suck up to the Big Boys with all his 'climate change' hysteria, is beyond wearing and totally embarrassing to the Socialist State of Washington.

Totally beyond Gauche. V

It probably depends on how the question was asked ... Would you pay $1/month to get the liberals to shut up about Climate Change? Sure!

I would gladly pay two dollars a month...........if that would make all the rest of the lies and propaganda go away. Money well invested at that point.

We know it's a lie, a hoax, as exposed in "The Report from Iron Mountain". A must read, 100 pages, lays so much out. Aliens, sports fanatics, environmental threat to the planet, key means to keep people busy, and willing to give of their time and money to keep things from going south.....1967 I believe was when this was leaked. Worth the read, just do understand it was a real leak. They have tried hard to dismiss it. I own the book.

Thank you mentioning "The Report from Iron Mountain" as I had forgot about that. Read excerpts from it quite a while ago. I should get a copy.

was thinking more along the lines,

10 a month, could be used to buy, more ammo, more food, more beer:dvl1:, more bandaids,

but a 1 dollar a month to shut these feral elitist communist jerks up would be worth it, :spns:

I'd pay a $1 a month just to shut these people up.

It won't work.

Dems and Liberals are like Seagulls.

They fly in, make a lot of noise, shit all over the place and then fly away.

And then they come back.

So no matter how much money/food you throw at them, they'll just come back and make a mess of things. V

The wrong question was asked to begin with.
What people don't believe is MANMADE climate change.
So how could you fight forces of nature?

What I would like to know is exactly WHO is saying that we will all be dead in 12 years if we don't act now (other than AOC.) I want the names and credentials of all those "scientists" and "experts" who have such "sage" prognostications.

There are none. It's a moving target, a rhetorical gambit. Environmental doom is always 12 years down the road, just like economic armageddon.

I've been paying well over $400.00 monthly CONTRIBUTING to "global warming."

I'm still freezing my skinny white ass off. I think we made the mid-forties in Upstate NY today.

I wish AOC would get back up on the bar in her g-string and REALLY warm it up...

Agreed, but...

These idiot kids are begging for their own death. There is nothing but ruin and suffering in the Green New Deal.

Whenever some workwise-useless environut libtard advocates for genocide of humanity from near 8 billion down to 500 million or less, they always figure they have reservations for a First-class stateroom on the few arks there'll be in such a time.

I spend 200 times $10 a month to promote climate change. My carbon footprint is every where and I'll continue supporting that effort. Living life to the fullest.
