The First Globals views on the environment reflect the liberal propaganda that they have been subjected to all their short lives. Senior citizens have lived through many decades and know that the climate changes constantly without any input from mankind. The Sun powers the weather!
The Sun is clean without any sunspots. It is sending less energy to the earth. The oceans are cooling and so is the rest of our weather going to be cooler for the next 30 years. I pray that my grandchildren will not have to struggle to survive an iceage.

the comment by Wagner is somewhat confusing as I have never seen or heard of any research showing the sun is sending less energy to the earth. Anyways, I thought the report on First Globals (I have never seen that demographic term for that age group) was thought provoking and would like to see one done that is from a neutral point of view instead of leaning to the right. The way questions are formed, the specific words used, the ideas or viewpoints not asked about and the order in which they are asked can have a significant effect upon how the questions are answered. I would be interested in finding out if the person doing the First Global polling survey realized the bias the poll has to the right? Do they care? Why or Why not? Is it important to be neutral politically as a company who does surveys/polling or not?
Your statement that the age group you are calling First Globals are going to be making the decisions for the country and the world in the next 20-30 years is a fact in my humble opinion also.

Thanks for your post, Barry Benjamin, we appreciate your participation. The First Globals™ and the Environment PowerPoint is a compilation of data from a variety of sources. One source is a survey completed by Zogby International on behalf of the National Wildlife Federation, found here, and another a survey on behalf of The United States Conference of Mayors, found here.
Zogby International asks questions to accurately reflect public opinion on a wide variety of topics. We are an independent polling firm and although we have done work for groups on both ends of almost every spectrum, our only agenda is to find out and report what Americans are really thinking.
