This is Scientific American's 60-second science. I'm Christopher in Taliatta.

Representative Lamar Smith of Texas, the Republican who heads the House Science Committee,

voters think the climate is being transformed, although far fewer think human activity is what's

responsible for the changes. The studies in the journal Climatic Change. Study author

rhetoric will start to change, as climate reality makes the politics of denial a little too hot to

handle. Thanks for listening. For Scientific American 60 Second Science, I'm Christopher
