I think there's a stronger correlation for religious people being active climate change deniers. Surely the creator would not destroy EVERYONE all at the same time?! That would be capricious and unfair!
But I admit I can't think of a purely free market solution for avoiding climate change, and perhaps as libertarian types haven't figured out how to innovate those incentives they just have to deny it's not real rather than admit the free market isn't going to innovate those incentives and arrive at a correction on its own before it's too late. The reality is, it's already too late. Now we're in the position of having to manage the consequences of our failure: soft landing vs hard landing.

- cmurf 10y agoFair point. But then, so the story goes, God sent the flood no doubt killing most of humanity all at once in a rather capricious and vindictive act of collective punishment (and mass murder). So there may be some cognitive dissonance going on in more than one way.
