An interesting poll on climate change from Yale University has been released. This poll, based on data collected in the USA, shows a number of things, perhaps the most interesting being that people who believe in climate change themselves is 63%, whilst those who believe there is scientific consensus on it is 41%.
Data shows responses to a number of climate related questions at the national, state, congressional district and county level.

So you mean gravity being young science? Because we certainly know hell of a lot less about gravity than about global warming. Yes, I know what I'm talking about here.
No, you don't. Currently, the most important parameter in climate research, the long term temperature forcing of a doubling of CO2 is unknown to about a factor of three difference between low and high estimates. I can set up a tabletop experiment with a long hallway to nail down the local force of gravity to a factor of ten better than that.
