77% of Democrat Voters Blame LA Fires on Climate Change; But That's Not What the Science Says

Craig Bannister : Jan 16, 2025  MRCTV.org

"California has a long history of wildfires, the vast majority of which occurred well before human-induced climate change became a point of discussion. Historical records and studies show that the region has always been prone to cycles of fire. ... Blaming wildfires on climate change might make for an easy headline, but it distracts from real solutions. Improving forest management, enforcing sensible building codes, and investing in early detection and firefighting infrastructure could significantly reduce the risk and impact of wildfires." -Anthony Watts, Meteorologist and senior fellow for environment and climate at The Heartland Institute

On Tuesday, Rasmussen released the results of a new national survey of US likely voters, in which it asked the following question:

"How likely is it that the recent wildfire in Los Angeles, California, was caused by climate change?"

Notably, the survey question did not ask about "man-made" climate change, but simply about the Earth's constantly changing climate, which may have affected how voters responded.

Fully 77% of Democrat voters said they think it's likely that climate change caused the fire, including nearly half (45%) who believe it's "very likely."

Liberal legacy media, such as MSNBC and CNN, have colluded to forcefully push the narrative that climate change caused the Los Angeles fires. Leftist politicians have also insisted that climate change caused the fires. For example, Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) said Tuesday that a person would have to be "a moron" to think climate change wasn't the culprit.

While the strong conviction of Democrats pulled the percent of all US likely voters who said it's at least somewhat likely up to a 53% majority, less than half of Republican (36%) and Other (46%) voters agreed climate change is to blame. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here

However, many scientists, geologists, meteorologists and studies have found that climate change does not cause, and is not connected to, fires. A small sampling of stories reporting these findings published by ClimateDepot.com is presented below:

US Geological Survey scientist Jon Keeley: 'L.A. Fires Not The Result Of Climate Change' –
Scrubland plant 'fires have been around for at least 20 million years. What's changed is we have people on the landscape'

Study found 'higher temperatures' & 'precipitation…did not appear to play a substantial role' in fires
