Over the next 10-15 years, 29% of all voters believe it is at least somewhat likely that the earth will become uninhabitable and humanity will be wiped out. A ScottRasmussen.com national survey found that 71% disagree and find it unlikely.
The totals include 10% who consider it Very Likely and 37% who say Not at All Likely.
There is a dramatic difference by age on this question. Half (51%) of voters under 35 believe it is at least somewhat likely humanity will be wiped out in the next decade or so. Only 12% of senior citizens agree (and only 4% of seniors believe it is Very Likely).
In the early days of the Cold War, many young people had similar concerns that the world would be destroyed by nuclear weapons. Another generation was convinced that overpopulation would devastate the human race by the 1980s. While we do not have comparable polling data for those periods, the response of young people today seems very similar.
The data also reveals a significant geographical divide. Forty-five percent (45%) of urban residents think humanity may be wiped out by climate change in 10-15 years. Only 23% of rural voters and 22% of suburban voters agree.
Pure propaganda.
At the rate we’re going with all the craziness I’m beginning to believe it too. Is the human race too stupid to survive?
On the bright side, if young voters actually believe this why would they bother to vote? See? Something good!
It’s true…very possible if the democRATS ever regain full power!
This is what happens when liberals take over education, entertainment and culture.
They have been shoveling the same crap since the late 50’s. There is not enough oil, there is not enough food, the air is too dirty to breathe, there are too many people, The globe is tilting on it’s axis, the sky is falling! Yada, Yada, Yada.
Same old crap, different wrapper!
My youngins don’t believe that CRAP!
Sometimes you just have to live long enough before you can recognize when people are bullshitting you.
The young haven’t done that yet.
This is why beer should be free.
The should worry far more about some little microscopic bug being the ruination of the human population!
I’ll probably be dead in 15, my family is long lived however.
Is it wrong to pray for the great asteroid of death?
I think we need the dinosaurs back.
Invest in white Nikes and Snuggies.
The Heaven’s Gate Left spies the comet and is mixing up the vodkas and phenobarbitol.
Yeehaw!
I believe we’ll be all betrayed by a demonrat Benedict Arnold political arm of the DNC that desires to give away the country to the UN.
The US of A will become the United Nation of Oppression or UNPO for short.
No matter what the problem is, the solution will always be “Put us in charge”.
It will be a self-fulfilling prophesy:they’ll all die in the upcoming Civil War.
“Half (51%) of voters under 35 believe it is at least somewhat likely they will be wiped out in the next decade or so”?
We can only hope….

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Not quite, but the full battle to kill it is underway. If we lose this battle, the only recourse for the Globalists is full totalitarianism right here in the USA brought to you be CONGRESS.

Ten years…
Remember all those sick zombie-like little kids singing and worshipping the Obama in elementary schools and camps?
I have to figure out to get each of these
suckers to send me 500 bucks to save them.
Hmmmm. Maybe something called carbon credits….

50% of all young voters are too stupid to be allowed to vote. Put the age back to 21.
Indeed, Janitor, they’re now Democrat voters – and they want Socialism. I’d like to say we’re not screwed, but, we’re screwed.
Let’s get the 29% eating tide pods again.
Well, I’m thinking I can skip my 401k contributions from here on out.
If you’re of my age 66.5 how many of you remember the threat of being nuked by the Russkies back in the late 50’s and early 60’s, the authorities (mostly the govt. and teachers) wanted us to believe we’d survive if we hid under our desks. We survived that and these young knuckleheads will also survive all the globull warming bs. Nothing is new under the Sun. There are Chicken Littles in every generation and the Rapture hasn’t happened yet either and probably never will.
Remember when about half the world thought society as we know it would come to a screeching halt when everything crashed at midnight 1/1/2000?
This is a lot like that.
Says this group of kids, who don’t even know what sex they are.
They need to fire up the ole time travel machine & go back to when fed-gov booklets describing how to build & supply a bomb shelter in the basement were delivered in the mail box.
