Sinking support for AGW hypothesis

Lawrence Solomon points to a new poll showing Americans' declining belief in human-induced global warming:

Only 50% of Democratic voters in the U.S. agree with President Obama’s belief that humans are responsible for global warming, according to a new poll from Pew Research Center released today. This figure ... represents the first time that a majority of Democrats have not endorsed the man-made theory of global warming.

Independent voters in the U.S. ... [o]nly 33% now blame us. ... 50% [last year] ...

... Republicans ... dropping from 27% last year to 18% this year.

Among all Americans, only 36% blame humans, the lowest figure yet. Last year, 47% blamed humans.
