As an "old person" this feels personal. What evidence do you have that supports such a claim for "old people"?

- jhayward 8y agoThat's a cherry-picked stat if I ever saw one. In context of this thread you seem to be equating that with "think climate change is a problem that needs to be addressed", which is an entirely different question. Most of us don't want to see our kids lives ruined. In fact, the headline stat of that linked survey is "56% of Americans over 55 worry a great deal about global warming".
