Utterly incompetent article, basing all its conclusions on this poll question:
“Suppose a proposal was on the ballot next year to add a monthly fee to consumers’ monthly electricity bill to combat climate change. If this proposal passes, it would cost your household $10 every month.”
It then assumes that voting against the proposal indicates an unwillingness to pay for climate change.
This completely misses the obvious - which is that a $10 monthly fee will not solve climate change and so people are right to vote against the proposal. Indeed it would be ridiculous for people to vote for such a proposal.
