Do you worry about global warming?
1. Yes, this is our only planet, rising temperatures change it.
2. No, "Global Warming" is a hoax.
3. Yes, I am an activist and want to repair this world.
4. No, let the government worry about that.
5. Unsure, should we be worried at all?
As of Weds. 12:27 a.m.:
Yes, this is our only planet, rising temperatures change it. 33%
No, “Global Warming” is a hoax. 47%
Yes, I am an activist and want to repair this world. 14%
No, let the government worry about that. 2%
Unsure, should we be worried at all? 5%
Done. After my entire household voted it was 50% that GW was a hoax.
The correct answer is not among the choices.
No, I like global warming.
At 2:57am CDT the results are... No, "Global Warming" is a hoax. 56%
Yes, I am an activist and want to repair this world. 10%
No, let the government worry about that. 2%
Unsure, should we be worried at all? 5%
/poll freeped
And it looks like 65% now
Number 2
up to 73%
We can't have refineries in the US since the oil companies won't build new ones due to the billions of dollars they shelled out for lawsuits for pollution, human health problems etc.
Every dollar and every minute spent on greening projects reduces our standard of living tenfold. Every gallon of ethanol starves a hundred hungry men of food. The green and environmental movement is playing havoc with our security, safety, standard of living and survivability on this planet.
$3.00 a gallon gasoline will destroy our economy in the long run. There is no substitute for oil and when we buy foreign, expensive, euro based oil we are throwing money away and are paying our enemies abroad.
Hoax is at 76%
Did you look at some of the other polls on that site? I saw one that asked about the GWOT being justified after the 9/11 attacks, a majority answered that it is.
Another poll asked about concealed weapons on campus making it more secure and again a majority answered yes.
Seems BSU has a pretty intelligent student body.
Hoax statistic now looks like Pac Man.

“Is a hoax” now at 80%. lol
2. Hey I still have the Time Magazine from grade school in which I was told that we were headed into an ice age - I HATE the cold.
I don’t think we can predict local weather past a few days with the knowledge we have, much less predict something for the entire planet with billions of inputs and variables, most of which we don’t even know about.
On the other hand, I believe we should be good stewarts of nature, but global warming, nah!
Did you know this is the coldest spring in at least a decade?
Missing from the choices:
Warming and cooling are part of a natural cycle.

Somehow, I don’t think this is the result they expected.
Hoax at 85%.
Tee hee.....
Leni
Still holding at 85%
I my very own self just pushed it up to 86%.
To keep it simple, NOPE!
LOL, now thats got to have them scratching their stoned little heads this morning! :D
My guess is we have FReeped more than one of their polls.
That was my thinking as well. You’re probably right, shouldn’t expect too much rationality from those who receive “higher learning”.
FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)
I voted No..it’s a hoax( and a reason for us to pay more taxes for all of these nonsensical programs.)
Yes, this is our only planet, rising temperatures change it. 12%
No, “Global Warming” is a hoax. 83%
Yes, I am an activist and want to repair this world. 3%
No, let the government worry about that. 1%
Unsure, should we be worried at all? 1%
