For this one, multiple answers are allowed. 26% said greenhouse gases from human activity, 32% solar variation, and 78% “natural processes.” (In reality all three are causes of climate change.)

BS, AGW has not been even remotely proven. The total contribution of human generated CO2 is miniscule and countered by human activity that generates extra particulate matter in the atmoshpere which blocks sunlight from coming in. AGW is a carefully constructed fantasy which apparently is extremely difficult to give up, like a lonely little girl and her imaginary friend.
****************

Besides the positive polling results, THIS ^^^ is what immediately caught my attention: they are still pushing the unproven claim that CO2 contributes to [formerly] “globull warming” - [currently] “climate change”, and further, the unproven claim, that man made CO2 contributes in any meaningful way to overall C02.

As long as this claim is used as a foundation, they will continue to push their humanity-controlling, green agenda, sustainability, money scam in some way, shape or form.

They NEED to claim that man has a direct role in the cause of so-called climate change in order for their green agenda to hold any water at all.

B.S., unless someone can show me proof of same to within a reasonable degree of scientific certainty.

It does. Looking year over year, the amount outputted by fossil fuel burning and cement making (a well measured quantity) is about double the increase measured in the atmosphere (also a well measured quantity). There is simply no other explanation than nature absorbs about 1/2 of what man generates. The main caveat is that nature fluctuatesl; during NH summer nature absorbs more than man generates and NH winter where nature absorbs a lot less.

There are some things that the catastrophic AGW people don't have right, such as how long it will take for CO2 to return to "normal" (280 ppm which is probably too low anyway) if man stopped producing CO2. The best estimate is about 40 years to get 1/2 way back to 280ppm from whatever level we are at. So even if our increase in CO2 were a big deal (IMO it is not), it would not be a lasting effect.
