Questions - Climate Change - December 14-15, 2015

National Survey of 1,000 U.S. Likely Voters

Conducted December 14-15, 2015
By Rasmussen Reports

1* A group of 195 countries have reached an historic agreement on climate change that would require nearly every country to significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions that they believe cause global warming. How likely is it that this agreement will significantly reduce global warming?

2* How likely is it that Congress will approve any of the major regulatory measures required by the climate change agreement?

3* Will the climate change agreement increase or decrease energy costs in the United States? Or will it have no impact on energy costs here?

4* To generate cleaner energy and fight global warming, it might cost Americans more money each year in taxes and utility costs. How much are you willing to pay each year in higher taxes and utility costs – nothing, $100, $300, $500, $1,000 or more than $1,000?
