While many Republican politicians have denied the existence of climate change in the past, a new poll conducted by Monmouth University is now saying that most Republican voters now believe it is indeed an issue, Independent is reporting. Sixty-four percent of Republicans now believe that climate change is real, which is a significant increase from a 2015 survey that documented only 49 percent of Republicans believing in it. Only 25 percent regard it as a “very serious” problem, however. This is a pretty low number in comparison to 82 percent of Democratic voters who believe the problem to be “very serious.” In total, 54 percent of Americans regard climate change as “very serious.”
The new survey also discovered that most Americans believe that we have enough time to reverse the effects.
