Republican and Democratic voters actually agree on many climate change fixes. So why no action?

… Despite all the squabbling, the majority of Americans – of all political parties – say climate change is real and agree on many things we need to do to fix it. There’s substantial accord on several areas that would help fight global warming while strengthening the economy. That consensus has stayed well above 50% over the past 20 years.

A new Public Agenda/USA TODAY/Ipsos survey finds a preponderance of Americans – Republicans, Democrats and independents – support increasing energy efficiency, modernizing the electric grid, investing in research to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and government help for cities and states to fight climate change. CONT.
