Please to see this favorable polling on public perception/acceptance of the science of climate change.
But @NBCNews, please don't frame this as a matter of "belief"!
Gravity acts whether or not you "believe" it.
Climate change is real whether or not you "believe it".https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1080157433018937344 …

@NBCNews was reporting correctly. The original survey asked about "belief." -
Yes, the problem lies deeper in this case. It is in the framing of the poll itself.

W/all respect I think that lets the editor off the hook too easily. If you ask 100 people "Do you believe in electromagnetism?" or "in the Spanish Civil War" and 43% say no, the story is not about their belief system--those are not questions of belief. It's about their knowledge.
