With the Canadian election coming up, I have compiled a list of parties who do not believe in climate change:

Like I said, these are the parties that believe climate change is a hoax, CO^(2) isn't bad for the environment (or in some cases is actually good for the environment), and that the earth warms naturally, and this is just one of those times. I tried to simplify it as much as possible without losing the general idea, but I do recommend checking out the links so I don't miss out on anything or take anything out of context.

PPC

....

>"It is an undisputed fact that the world’s climate has always changed and will continue to change. Until twelve thousand years ago, much of Canada was under ice, and it is thanks to natural climate change that we can live here today."

....

>"There isΒ howeverΒ no scientific consensus on the theoryΒ that CO2Β produced by human activity is causingΒ dangerous global warmingΒ todayΒ or will in the future"

....

>" They make exaggerated claims to scare people. They even manipulate school children, getting them to pressure their parents and to demonstrate in the streets. "

....

>"Climate change alarmism is based on flawed models that have consistently failed at correctly predicting the future.[...] In fact, CO2 is beneficial for agriculture and there has recently been a measurable β€œgreening” of the world in part thanks to higher levels. Despite what global warming propaganda claims, CO2 is not a pollutant. It is an essential ingredient for life on Earth and needed for plant growth. "

Policies:

>Withdraw from the Paris Accord and abandon unrealistic greenhouse gas emission reduction targets.
>
>Stop sending billions of dollars to developing countries to help them reduce their emissions.
>
>Abolish the Liberal government’s carbon tax and leave it to provincial governments to adopt programs to reduce emissions if they want to.
>
>Abolish subsidies for green technology and let private players develop profitable and efficient alternatives.
>
>Invest in mitigation strategies if problems arise as a result of any natural climate change.
>
>Prioritize implementing practical solutions to make Canada’s air, water and soil cleaner, including bringing clean drinking water to remote First Nations communities.

The Monmouth University Poll .. 697 New Hampshire voters drawn from a list of registered voters *who participated in a primary or general election in the past two election cycles*

This means the polling excludes everyone who hasn't voted recently. That is a very significant portion of Andrew Yang's support (such as myself, I am 42 and never even registered to vote before).

That means that the poll result is invalid. This should absolutely be brought up with the DNC and the media. Regardless of whether we think they are actually going to change the rules. Its not something that we should just let go.

Voter turnout for presidential elections was most recently 55.7%. So like always, turnout is key as long as people realize that and stick to their guns.
