Only 56% of people understand that most scientists agree the globe is warming. In actuality virtually every scientist believes the climate is warming. Even most climate deniers understand that simple fact. Deniers just aren’t willing to admit humans are the cause. They are wrong.

We should all be furious that as a summer of climate fueled event wreaks havok on our planet more isn't being done to stem the tide.
Record heatwaves, record floods, record droughts, record wildfires. How many more records before we #ActOnClimate?
