A growing number of Americans describe climate change as a crisis. 2/3’s say President Trump is doing too little to tackle the problem.
From a poll conducted by The Washington Post and Kaiser Family Foundation:
“a growing disconnect between Americans worried about the warming planet and Trump administration officials who aggressively scaled back Obama-era environmental regulations and relinquished the nation’s role as a global leader in pushing for climate action.”
“A strong majority of Americans, about 8 in 10, say human activity is fueling climate change, and roughly 1/2 believe action is urgently needed within the next decade if humanity is to avert its worst effects.
Nearly 4 in 10 now say climate change is a crisis, up from less than a quarter five years ago.
