A new Gallup poll shows that a plurality of Americans think global warming news is exaggerated. This is no shocker given that these so-called climate experts predicted in 2007 that the Arctic Ice Cap would disappear by 2013. Uh, it grew by 533,000 square miles last year, which is on top of the 19,000 Manhattan-sized islands worth of sea ice created.
Via the Hill:
In the poll conducted in early March, Americans were most likely to say news reports generally exaggerated the seriousness of global warming, Gallup said Monday. Thirty-three percent said the seriousness was underestimated and 23 percent said the reports are correct.

Opinions on the seriousness of global warming reports have generally been steady since 2011. Since Gallup first took the poll 1997, the percentage of Americans who think global warming news is exaggerated has risen.
Republicans are far more likely to think that global warming is exaggerated, at 68 percent, compared with 18 percent of Democrats.
Additionally, global temperatures have stagnated for the past 16 years, which is why Americans should remain skeptical about this issue.
