The Daily Mail notes that “global warming is the least of the cares of the average American.”

ESTV adds that “climate change is not a popular topic these days”.

So what? If you’re heading down a road at 100 miles per hour, straight toward a concrete wall, and three quarters of the people in the car don’t believe you or don’t care, what does that matter? If you can, you push down on the brakes – fast.

Global warming has diminished as a fad, but it was never as a fad that global warming mattered. The science of climate change is clear, and overwhelming, and unaffected by popular opinion. The fact that people are so disconnected from the planet they’re living on that they don’t care much about the planet’s biosphere is part of the problem, not a good excuse to justify inaction.

Confronting climate change may not be popular, but it’s the right thing to do.

Bumper Sticker Definition of Environmentalism

What is environmentalism? I prefer this simple definition:Environmentalism is the crazy idea that we ought to clean up after ourselves.Defuse all the crazy right wing political nonsense about the environment with this straight talking bumper sticker, which reminds people that taking care of the environment is just a matter of the family values we try to teach our children.

Is the Earth getting hot, or is it just me?

Is the Earth getting hot, or is it just me? This bumper sticker tries to be sexy and socially conscious at the same time. Read the bumper sticker through three or four times, and you’ll get the double meaning. Are you hot, or is it just global warming? It’s green for the environment on the inside, but red hot on the outside.

My Other Car is a Hiking Boot

Open people’s minds to alternative forms of transportation with this environmentalist bumpersticker that reads: My other car is a hiking boot. Have human beings forgotten how to walk? Help remind them how to put one foot in front of the other.

Fight Global Warming and Get on your Bike

Global warming comes from the pollution of big factories, but also from the personal cars people drive, even on short trips. Help reduce the carbon emissions that fuel global warming. Get on your bicycle when taking trips within a shorter range. In protecting the environment, every bit of conservation counts.

Stop Watering the Lawn (bumper sticker)

Stop Watering the Lawn — You Live in the Desert! If you are a resident of Eastern California, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, or Arizona, you know what I’m talking about. Get your fellow residents to stop acting like they still live in Wisconsin! (environmentalist sticker for denizens of the Southwest)

Tree Hugger Not A Smokestack Hugger

Pro-pollution activists mock environmentalists as tree huggers, but what’s the true alternative to environmentalism? Ought we to live in filth?As for myself, I would rather be a tree hugger than a smokestack hugger. Show the true alternative to living green with this environmentalist bumper sticker.

Drill, Baby, Drill? Bumper Sticker

Golly, but those Republicans sure had a good time chanting Drill, Baby, Drill during the last election cycle, didn’t they? Ask the Republicans now: How’s that "Drill Baby Drill" thing working out for you? How’s it working out for us all? With BP and Deepwater Horizon, all we can say is "Good gracious!"

With the end of the month approaching, it’s a good time to look at how the swag’s been swinging. The following are our top ten selling bumper stickers for November of 2009:

1. Question Authority. The saying remains applicable no matter which party is in power, don’t you know.

2. I Support President Obama. Because, FOX News appearances aside, there are still a lot of people in this country who do.

3. Another Old White Woman for Barack Obama. The bumper sticker started out as an don’t-pigeonhole-me alternative to the gender and racial polarization of the Clinton-Obama primary fight, but has remained pretty darned popular over time. Does that indicate that gender and race are still issues regarding the Obama presidency that people feel the need to counter?

4. Value All Families… it needs to be said, especially in yet another election where not all families were valued by voters. (See “Maine,” “Disappointment”)

5. Defend Marriage from Republican Bigots. See above. Who do they think they are to tell everyone else who can get married and who can’t?

6. Health Care for All, a bumper sticker that emerges as players in DC fight over whether this will actually come to pass.

7. Turn Off Your TV and Think: but wait, that’s not what Katie Couric said…

8. Jesus would heal the sick / Health Care Reform Now. Or what, do you think he would ask for proof of insurance first?

9. Is it Vietnam Yet? Sure, they call it “Iraq,” and it’s boxier-looking on the map, but it’s looking more like a quagmire every day…

10. The Thing Worse Than the Rebellion is the Thing that Causes the Rebellion, a saying by Frederick Douglass that still rings true, a century and a half later.

On the left you’ll see the ten most often viewed bumper stickers from our progressive collection in the past week; on the right you’ll see the ten most often bought bumper stickers from the same collection from the same time period.

As you can see, these lists do not have a great deal of overlap. The bumper stickers that are present on both lists represent a current, high-stakes political topic: that of health care reform. Some bumper stickers people come across (FOX News, Voldemort) may stem from searches by people looking for information, not necessarily for stickers. Other bumper stickers people buy (pro-Obama, anti-war, anti-terror, anti-Guantanamo, Maine Marriage “No on 1″) reflect a high conversion rate: not too many people are looking for these messages right now, but the people who are looking for them are committed to sharing their message.

“No president has ever had a higher disapproval rating in any CNN or Gallup Poll; in fact, this is the first time that any president’s disapproval rating has cracked the 70 percent mark.”

Even Richard Nixon didn’t have this many people disapprove of him. Not even on the day he resigned.

Resignation. That’s a good word for what’s going on in America – and for what should go on instead.

Under George W. Bush, Americans have become resigned to a failed government and to international embarrassment.

What should have happened instead? Instead of the American people becoming resigned, George W. Bush should have resigned. Even Tricky Dick Nixon had the decency to resign. Even President Nixon had more integrity than President Bush.

So, we think the bumper sticker you see makes a pretty good one to mark the final year of the presidency of George W. Bush: At least Nixon resigned.

These messages are what liberals are looking for now. These searches capture the frequency of the liberal wavelength that’s resonating outside the presidential campaigns right now. Ask yourself: do they reflect what’s happening inside the presidential campaign?
