Climate changeA communications failure
"To defeat the worst ravages of climate change, billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates and others have urged a WWII-style mobilization to rapidly transform our entire energy, built, transportation and industrial infrastructure to stop polluting the atmosphere. But how can the public be mobilized for war if they don’t even know they are under attack?
They largely don’t.
Climate change is a low priority for most Americans. According to the respected Yale Project on Climate Change Communications, only 20 percent of Americans “understand that nearly all climate scientists (more than 90 [percent]) are convinced that human-caused global warming is happening.” Meanwhile, 67 percent say they “rarely” or “never” discuss the issue with their family and friends. Only 20 percent say they hear people they know talk about it at least once a month."
