Depending on how you phrase the questions, approximately the same percentage of the public believes in global warming as believe in alien visitors. Polls vary widely depending on when the poll is taken, who is asking the questions and how the questions are asked
That leaves a lot of doors hanging wide open. For instance, climate change is a fact. It was happening on earth and the other planets since their formation. Man made climate change on the other hand is pure speculation.
As for UFOs. Statistically speaking, life in the universe is very likely. Whether there is intelligent life in the universe brings the number down some but still within the realm of possibility. UFOs on the other hand are pure speculation.
People have been seeing things they can't understand for thousands of years but the likelihood of common visits by aliens is pretty low. Millions have seen UFOs but not one has ever been able to produce definitive proof. No Aliens have openly contacted us. To believe that all the governments of the world have always conducted vast cover ups of alien visits simply stretches the bounds of believability.

Depends on what is meant by definitive proof.
Naysayers scream for tangible physical proof.
NOw there are 4,000 tangible physical proof trace landing cases.
Ahhhhh but they’ve moved the bar, now they want one in their lap with an ambassador and martini’s.
LOL.
