We are told constantly of the "settled" science of global warming and bombarded with news coverage on that and world terrorism.
What is the bigger current threat to humanity-Global warming or Terrorism?
Yet another thread that ignores anyone who is not left or right leaning.
:roll:
You do realize, that there are tens of millions of Americans who are not partisan?
But I will answer it anyway.
How can terrorism be a threat to humanity?
Unless everyone becomes a terrorist and then kills themselves after they strike.
Global warming could, theoretically, wipe out humanity.
Terrorism (realistically) cannot.
Terrorism is real. The threat that it poses is real and direct.
Global warming is a wrong-wing superstition/fairy tale. The only real threat that it poses is indirect, as a consequence of the destructive wrong-wing policies that may be inflicted on us under the guise of fighting this ersatz threat.
Actually, prety much EVERYONE agrees that climate change is happening. The main disagreement is why it is happening and if man is resposible or not.

Well assuming that Global Warming is 100% correct, the answer would clearly be Global Warming. It would affect EVERYONE where Terrorism simply wouldn't on the scale of Global Warming.

Global warming has far greater potential to affect more people. So on some aggregate level of "humanity", global warming is the greater threat.
It would be a much more interesting poll if you removed the opinions of people who dont even understand the basics of global warming and deny its actually happening on its face.
I'm a right leaning American and picked global warming/climate change. Terrorism isn't an existential challenge, climate change is.
Absolutely classic left wing presentation. Get rid of those who have the nerve to disagree. Utopia can't be far off.
I guess if you think removing conspiracy theorists and scientific illiterates from a poll looking at a scientific issue is somehow inappropriate, I can't really help you out.
