The proportion of Americans who are "alarmed" by g****l w*****g tripled over the last five years and is now at an all-time high, a new survey shows.
Almost 6 in 10 Americans are either "alarmed" or "concerned" by g****l w*****g, marking what researchers say is a major shift in public perception of the issue.
The survey was conducted by the Yale Program on C*****e C****e Communication and George Mason University's Center for C*****e C****e Communication, which together have tracked Americans' views on c*****e c****e since 2008.
As recently as 2014, the percentage of Americans categorized as "dismissive" of g****l w*****g was roughly the same as those who were "alarmed" -- around 11 to 12%.
But in the years since, the ranks of the "dismissive" -- those who believe g****l w*****g is not happening or caused by humans -- has fallen to just 10%.
Over the same time, the "alarmed" group -- people who are most worried about g****l w*****g and support measures to reduce heat-trapping carbon pollution -- grew to 31% of those surveyed, and today outnumber the dismissive crowd by more than 3-to-1.
The findings show that as the global c*****e c****es rapidly, a growing proportion of Americans view the climate crisis as an actual crisis.
This new urgency felt my many Americans stands in sharp contrast to the policies of the Trump administration, which has rolled back dozens of environmental regulations, many of which were aimed at curbing c*****e c****e.
As for what could be behind the shift, Leiserowitz says there are a number of likely factors.
One, he says, is the science.
"The reports from the scientific community have become ever more dire," he said, pointing to the alarming United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on C*****e C****e 2018 report that showed the window to stem catastrophic c*****e c****e is rapidly closing as one example.
Another reason is that political leaders are talking about the issue more, and polls have shown that tackling c*****e c****e is now a top issue for many Democratic v**ers.

Another question I DARE you to answer. So lets us for s**ts and giggles say we do everything you Global Warmers say we should. Will that fix anything ?
Can we then do exactly what yuse guys are doing ? When we change over to carbon free energy and we still get bad weather and Mother Earth keeps getting hotter, can we say like you guys do now, " see it's getting warmer and you were wrong. "
