Hmm.. Yeah?! Did you really need a poll to tell you that?

Apparently they did as YouGov/Polimetrix just finished a nationally representative survey for the Economist. I thought some of the graphs where interesting, so I copied them for your viewing pleasure (or displeasure).

What do you think is the most important environmental problem facing the world today?

The partisan split was again clear in the perceived seriousness of global warming. How serious a problem do you think global warming is?

My thoughts:

I think it's a shame to see such a partisans divide when it comes to the environment. It's almost like the political parties are dictating science to the people.
