The public believes the effects of global warming on the climate are not as bad as politicians and scientists claim, a poll has suggested.
The Ipsos Mori poll of 2,032 adults - interviewed between 14 and 20 June - found 56% believed scientists were still questioning climate change.
There was a feeling the problem was exaggerated to make money, it found.
The Royal Society said most climate scientists believed humans were having an "unprecedented" effect on climate.
The survey suggested that terrorism, graffiti, crime and dog mess were all of more concern than climate change.

Despite the dumbing down of our students, people still have an intuitive ability to smell dogshit and fraud. My faith in Humanity is restored!
So people are smarter than the MSM would have us believe.

Who is doing the misleading and exploiting, seeking to distort science, Sir David? Royal Society my behind.
Global Warming isn’t science...its a religion, based on sin...environmental sin, to be precise. And only Al Gore can lead us to redemption.
“People had been influenced by counter arguments, he said.”
Oh No!! We can’t have that!
I dont have any doubt of climate change, It has changed every since the world started spinning. I just dont believe humans have that much to do with it and certainly cant stop it.
Actually there is a strong connection between "dog mess" and much of the AGW rhetoric we've been hearing.
These are the same idiots who proclaimed heavier-than-air flight was scinetifically impossible, that a person could not breathe if travelling faster than a horse could run, and that the incandescent lamp was not technically possible.
They can be dismissed as pompous fools and intellectual masturbators.
Year ago, the Encyclopaedia Britannica did a reproduction of an 1800 or so version as a sales promo.
Reading the pompous, and ignorantly, arrogantly, wrong condescending proclamations is a good exercise in savage amusment on a rainy afternoon. The foundations of modern Science were laid then, but it went to some people's heads.
The tradition is alive, I see.
