Americans who believe that aliens have visited earth: 77%
Americans who believe that humans are causing climate change: 44%.

The statistics are from a column by Nicholas Kristof entitled: “‘Neglected Topic’ Winner: Climate Change” in the Jan. 19 issue of the New York Times.
30% of Americans think Saddam Hussein was responsible for the attacks on September 11, 2001. At least climate change is beating that!
