Bummer: Most Say The “Science Isn’t Settled”

Thursday, July 10, 2014 8:35
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

(Before It's News)

Serendipitously, almost the same percent are all for forcefully shutting down debate

(Rasmussen) Voters strongly believe the debate about global warming is not over yet and reject the decision by some news organizations to ban comments from those who deny that global warming is a problem.

Only 20% of Likely U.S. Voters believe the scientific debate about global warming is over, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Sixty-three percent (63%) disagree and say the debate about global warming is not over. Seventeen percent (17%) are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.) (snip)

The BBC has announced a new policy banning comments from those who deny global warming, a policy already practiced by the Los Angeles Times and several other media organizations.  But 60% of voters oppose the decision by some news organizations to ban global warming skeptics. Only 19% favor such a ban, while slightly more (21%) are undecided.

It should also disturb people that 21% aren’t sure whether or not to ban discussion.
