Among Tea Party Republicans, fully 70% say there is no evidence. Disbelief in global warming in the GOP is a recent occurrence. Just a few years ago, in 2007, a 62%-majority of Republicans said there is solid evidence of global warming, while less than a third (31%) said there is no solid evidence. Currently, just 38% of Republicans say there is solid evidence the earth is warming, and only 16% say that warming is caused by human activity. In 2007, three-in-ten Republicans said global warming was the result of human activity. Also, by nearly a two-to-one margin, Republicans say scientists do not agree that the earth is getting warmer because of human activity. Few Republicans see global warming as a very serious problem (14%) or in need of immediate government action (24%). <a href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/pubs\/1780\/poll-global-warming-scientists-energy-policies-offshore-drilling-tea-party\">Read More<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A majority of Republicans now say there is no solid evidence the earth is warming;
