In a very recent poll related to science, climate, and technology, “… all four political groups, which broke down in the poll as 39% Democrats, 25% Independents, 24% traditional Republicans, and 12% Teaparty Republicans, favored more research into renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power and providing tax rebates for people who purchase energy efficient vehicles or solar panels.” The most interesting thing about this poll is that the Tea Party is the most anti science group, and the formation of this group has actually increased the respect for science found among the remaining Republicans. Tea Party members were the most wrong on science, AND the most convinced that they were right. And there’s more, much more.
