    Default The climate crisis has become the public's greatest fear.

    Climate crisis seen as 'most important issue' by public, poll shows

    Eight-country poll shows people view climate crisis as priority over migration and terrorism

    A majority of the public recognise the climate crisis as an “emergency” and say politicians are failing to tackle the problem, backing the interests of big oil over the wellbeing of ordinary people, according to an eight-country poll.

    The survey, which comes before what is expected to be the world’s biggest climate demonstrations on Friday, found that climate breakdown is viewed as the most important issue facing the world, ahead of migration, terrorism and the global economy, in seven out of the eight countries surveyed. In the US it comes third behind terrorism and affordable healthcare.

    Now the public needs organizing to identify the Deniers and to record their contributions to the climate disaster with a view to stripping their assets to fund the extinction rebellion.

    I would agree it's pretty close to the Top.

    How interesting that in the U.S. it comes "third behind terrorism and affordable healthcare." I can definitely understand the health care thing... but terrorism? What fracking terrorism? The only terrorism in this country is homegrown crazy white males with military-grade weaponry mowing us down at Walmart, the night club, church, concerts, school. No one seems much interested in doing a single thing about that, except for us citizens.

    That the Brit maggot should attempt to mar this accurate and rational observation with his perpetual ' groaning ' is a tribute to its forcefulness.

    Me too. Sometimes I wake up in absolute terror because I can't breathe. Those 400 parts per million of carbon dioxide are literally suffocating me.

    I am so glad this has moved beyond the debate stage and into generalized acceptance. Now comes the realization that not only do we have to do something, it has to be lots and it has to be right away.

    Now we are getting organized.

    The bright side of this is that by pulling together to meet this common threat, it will have a much needed uniting effect.

    Why does "doing something" always have to hinge on destroying the economy, and implementing communism?

    Economies which are built upon environment-destroying criteria have to change. There is no alternative.

    ' Communism ' ? I suggest that you are exaggerating in the hope of fear-mongering .
