Catholic Republicans are more likely to believe in global warming than their fellow party members of other religions, according to research released Friday. The research, conducted by the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication and the George Mason University Center for Climate Change Communication, was released one day after the Pope issued his encyclical on the environment, which called on Catholics everywhere to step up to the frontline in battling climate change. Though some Catholic Republican politicians were quick to criticize the Pope for jumping into global politics, the poll found that Catholic Republican voters actually agree with the pontiff on climate change. More than half of Catholic Republicans agreed with the statement “Yes, global warming is happening,” compared to 42 percent of non-Catholic Republicans.
