(Daily Signal)—Considering the massive propaganda effort to brainwash Americans into believing that climate change will doom humanity if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels yesterday, it is impressive to see just how little the American public buys the narrative.
A recent poll finds that Americans value energy independence, keeping car prices lower, and reducing the cost of electricity ahead of fighting climate change.
When asked, “Is it more important to make America energy independent or fight climate change?” most respondents (57%) chose energy independence, while another 39% chose climate change, and 4% said they were not sure.
When asked, “Which is more important, reducing greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change, or keeping the price of cars low enough for families to afford them?” about half of respondents (50%) chose keeping car prices low, while 43% said reducing greenhouse gas emissions was more important. The remaining 7% said they were not sure.
When asked, “Which is more important, reducing greenhouse gas emissions or reducing the cost and improving the reliability of electricity and gas for American families?” respondents again rejected the climate goals. A majority (59%) said reducing energy cost and improving reliability was more important, while about a third (35%) chose the climate option. The remainder (5%) said they were not sure.
The poll, conducted by RMG Research on behalf of Napolitan News Service, surveyed a representative sample of 1,000 Americans on March 18 and 19. The margin of error is +/- 3.1 percentage points.
The Climate Industrial Complex
This poll demonstrates strong resilience in the face of a climate alarmist industrial complex that has seized the commanding heights of American culture.
Legacy media outlets receive large grants to cover climate issues from an alarmist perspective, for example. In 2022, the Associated Press announced a new team dedicated to covering climate issues, with funding from the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Quadrivium, and The Rockefeller Foundation.
The MacArthur Foundation announced more than $6 million in grants to support climate journalism earlier this year. The foundation’s president, John Palfrey, made no bones about his bias on the issue. “One of the most important stories of our time centers on the existential crisis climate change poses to humanity, along with the positive health benefits and economic opportunities inherent in the clean energy transition,” he said.
These represent just a sampling of the many climate alarmist groups pouring money into media outlets to slant coverage on the issue. They seem to be getting a lot for their money, too. The Associated Press Stylebook, a handbook most news outlets use to help inform their written style, has urged journalists to “avoid false balance” on climate change.
“Greenhouse gases are the main driver of climate change,” the style guide declares from on high. “Climate change, resulting in the climate crisis, is largely caused by human activities that emit carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, according to the vast majority of peer-reviewed studies, science organizations, and climate scientists.”
AP doesn’t admit that the supposed unanimity of scientists on man-made catastrophic climate change is based on a lie—that 97% of scientists don’t actually believe the world is going to end because we burn fossil fuels.
The study claiming to reach that conclusion merely analyzed peer-reviewed research papers, put them in seven categories, and then artificially claimed that the vast majority of the papers making any claim favored the alarmist view. Many scientists have said the study mischaracterized their research.
Yet the 97% statistic keeps showing up.
Back in 2021, Facebook started adding notes to posts about climate change, directing users to a “Climate Science Information Center” that repeated the 97% claim.
Meanwhile, President Joe Biden championed a bill Democrats termed the “Inflation Reduction Act.” Before it passed, they claimed it would fight inflation. After it passed, Biden’s White House bragged that it represented “the largest investment in climate action in history.”
As I expose in my book, “The Woketopus: The Dark Money Cabal Manipulating the Federal Government,” Biden tapped John Podesta, founder of the Center for American Progress, to determine where the green grants went, and his administration served as a revolving door for climate activists.
Activists would go from the administration to a climate alarmist nonprofit like the Natural Resources Defense Council and then back to the White House (as former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy did). Others would go from a climate group like the National Wildlife Federation to the administration, then back to another climate group, like the Wilderness Society (as Tracey Stone-Manning did).
The climate activist groups that staffed and advised the Biden administration received funding from the Left’s dark money network, which includes the nonprofits established by Arabella Advisors; George and Alex Soros’ Open Society Foundations; the Tides Foundation; and others. These left-leaning groups promote critical race theory (the view that America is systemically racist), gender ideology, and a preference for technocratic government, in addition to climate alarmism.
This poll shows, yet again, that Americans aren’t buying what the climate alarmists are selling, no matter how hard they push it.

Starting the Day With a Scripture-Inspired Roast Helps Center Your Thoughts on Eternal Truths Amid Temporal Pressures
The world can seem chaotic, especially right after we wake up. Many believers start their mornings reaching for something familiar — a hot cup of coffee — yet end up settling for mediocre brews that do little more than deliver a caffeine jolt. The daily grind of life, with its endless distractions, news cycles, and responsibilities, can leave even the most faithful feeling spiritually parched alongside their physical fatigue. What if your morning ritual could do more than wake you up? What if it could ground you in truth, nourish your body with exceptional quality, and quietly advance a kingdom purpose at the same time?
That’s the promise — and the reality — behind Promised Grounds Coffee. This Christian-founded company doesn’t just roast beans; it approaches every step as an act of worship and discipleship. By selecting only the top 10% of specialty-grade beans, ethically sourced from dedicated farmers in Central and South America, and small-batch roasting them with reverence in Austin, Texas, Promised Grounds delivers what many describe as the best coffee available — never burnt, never bland, but rich with origin stories and layered flavors that honor God’s creation.
From the vibrant Psalm 27 Roast (a light, bright medium option) to the bold yet peaceful 2 Timothy 1:7 Decaf, each bag carries a Scripture verse that turns your daily pour into a gentle reminder of faith. And through their Ounce Per Ounce Promise, every ounce of coffee you enjoy provides an equal ounce of clean water to families in need via partnership with Filter of Hope — literally brewing hope for body and soul, one cup at a time.
The challenge for today’s Christians runs deeper than finding a decent cup. In an age of convenience-driven consumerism, it’s easy to support companies that dilute values or remain silent on matters of faith. Many believers want their everyday choices — from what they drink to how they spend — to reflect discipleship rather than just convenience. Promised Grounds solves this by weaving Christian excellence into the entire process: beans nurtured with prayerful stewardship by farming families, roasted as an offering rather than a commodity, and packaged with Bible verses to encourage a mindset of gratitude and purpose from the first sip. Reviewers consistently praise the smooth, rich profiles — whether enjoyed black in a drip maker, iced on a warm day, or shared in fellowship — noting how the quality stands toe-to-toe with premium secular brands while delivering something far more meaningful.
This integration of faith and flavor addresses a real need in Christian households and ministries. Busy parents, church leaders, and remote workers alike report that starting the day with a Scripture-inspired roast helps center their thoughts on eternal truths amid temporal pressures. The coffee’s exceptional character — bright citrus notes in lighter roasts or deep chocolate undertones in bolder ones — comes from meticulous selection and careful roasting that respects the bean’s natural gifts rather than masking them. It’s the kind of coffee that elevates a simple quiet time, fuels productive workdays, or sparks meaningful conversations when shared at Bible studies or outreach events. And because it’s ethically sourced with integrity, every purchase supports sustainable livelihoods for farmers who treat their crops like family harvests.
For those leading churches or small groups, the impact multiplies. Promised Grounds offers bundles and options perfect for hospitality ministries, turning ordinary coffee service into an opportunity to point people toward the living water of Christ. Imagine greeting visitors with a warm cup whose very bag carries God’s Word — a subtle yet powerful witness that aligns with the Great Commission. The company’s Texas roots and commitment to “brewing hope” resonate especially with believers who value American enterprise paired with global compassion.
Of course, quality alone isn’t enough if the experience feels out of reach. Promised Grounds keeps it accessible with practical perks like free shipping on orders over $40, sample sets for discovering favorites, and thoughtful add-ons such as faith-themed mugs. Whether you prefer whole beans for fresh grinding, grounds for convenience, or even bulk options for larger households and ministries, the result is consistently superior coffee that makes discipleship feel integrated rather than added on.
As you consider how to align even the smallest habits with your walk with God, Promised Grounds Coffee stands out as a refreshing solution. It tackles the dual problems of subpar daily sustenance and disconnected consumption by offering a product that genuinely excels in taste while advancing a mission of clean water, farmer dignity, and scriptural encouragement. Believers who make the switch often describe it as more than a beverage upgrade — it becomes part of their rhythm of gratitude, a daily invitation to remember that every good gift comes from above.
If you’re ready to transform your mornings (and perhaps your church gatherings) with coffee that honors both exceptional craftsmanship and Christian values, I encourage you to explore what Promised Grounds has to offer. One sip at a time, you’ll be nourishing your body, refreshing your spirit, and participating in something far greater — all while enjoying what truly is among the best coffee available.
