My fellow Americans. Get off your asses and vote. In every election. Even in red areas. If we all get off our asses, we will generally win. Run for local office if you are able. Contact local officials and get them to take measures.

    Do you support climate policies such as ending car dependency, carbon taxes and, getting off of fossil fuels?

    So you are saying the nature article is wrong because of voter turnout?

    In a way, you are proving the articles point. Belief leads to action. GOP voters have a higher turnout because they think their vote matters. I think the left, particularly in red areas probably don’t turn out to vote because they don’t think it matters.

      Well I’m in a red area and my vote didn’t matter for a decade until re-districting took place and made my district competitive again.

      The article was saying a lot of GOP voters also support climate policy. I disagree for the reasons above.

      They support the idea of those policies but don’t actually vote for them.
