In the in-box, this interesting survey from Nate at Field & Stream:

A new survey conducted by the National Wildlife Federation (the results of which are being hosted exclusively on ) shows that:

76 percent of sportsmen believe global warming is occurring71 percent believe it’s a serious threat to fish and wildlife78 percent believe the U.S. should reduce its emissions of greenhouse gases like CO2

even though:

73 percent consider themselves conservative to moderate on political issues50 percent consider themselves evangelical Christians

and

53 percent voted for Bush (compared to 29 percent for John Kerry)

Here’s the link to the full survey. I have lots of brothers in Christ who are outdoorsman and know they have been conservation conscious for generations. But I’m surprised the numbers are that high. I’ve emailed Nate back to see if we can get more details on this; worth expanding on.
