Who cares about the climate crisis in NH?

[YankeyMCC]

The actual headline in the Boston Globe is:

"Party views on climate stand out"

But here's the point that jumped out at me:

The higher the education level, the more likely respondents were to be concerned about climate change. Among those with high school education or less, 39 percent are "very concerned," while 68 percent of those who have completed at least some graduate work are "very concerned."

Ok all together now...Duh!!

More from the article:

Overall, 76 percent of state residents say they are "very concerned" or "somewhat concerned" about climate change, according to a poll commissioned by the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests and conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center in September.

But among respondents who said they are Republicans, 22 percent said they were "very concerned," while 69 percent of Democrats and 40 percent of independents had the same level of concern.

The Forest Society is a nonpartisan group that focuses on forestry practices and land conservation. The group would fall into the category of "very concerned" about climate change, spokesman Jack Savage said.

"We are very concerned, and we are trying to sort out what the appropriate response is for an organization like ours," Savage said.
