A new survey of public opinion research reveals the overwhelming majority around the world support more ambitious efforts, and want to overcome geopolitical differences, to fight climate change.
You can’t assume from people voting for one of the only two parties that can win an election, plus the fact that neither party promises adequate action on climate change, that people don’t care. In a first-past-the-post system people often feel forced to vote for a party that is not their favorite and doesn’t prioritize as they would like.

The survey says 80%… that is enough to get any party to win. Hell, if you dare to dream high enough, that number is high enough to completely set the current government to the side, deny their legitimacy, and make a new governmental system - like one which is not a “first-past-the-post system”.
The argument of “only two parties that can win” is nonsensical in this context, no offense.
Either way, the US is not the only country in the world, and it’s not the only example the other user gave. Even if we ignore the US, how do you justify this in other countries that don’t have a first-past-the-post system? Like I said in another comment:
Survey’s also show that most people want carbon taxes, but look what happens when the price of gas goes up.
People don’t like that, and it affects how they vote.
This is an obvious lie though.no matter the words.
I’ve nwvwr met anyone who does.
Some evidence to supoort my assertion.
80% of Australians voted for climate deniers at the last national elections.
NZ voted for a National Givernwmt. Who had a policy fi reopening oil and gas exploration ffs
Netherlands votered for Gert Wilder’s FFS.
UKnlooks set to Vote Labour another climate denying political parry…Hell, climate isn’t even discussed.
US will Vote Biden or Trump, both climate deniers. Biden has approved morenoil and gas exploration then Trump did ffs
So no they do not .I’d suggest the number is closer to 10-15% based on voting polls.
