Only 17% of Americans surveyed said they hear about climate change in the media at least once a week and only 9% of Americans say they hear about it on social media once a week

@Snoro
Are the ppl they surveyed not regular weather checkers? When those folks hear about flooding, fires, storm surges & other extreme weather events, are they not connecting the dots? Are they still buying the "once in every thousand year occurrence" BS timeline? -
