FILE - In this Sunday, July 24, 2016 file photo, climate change activists carry signs as they march during a protest in downtown in Philadelphia a day before the start of the Democratic National Convention. Matthew Nisbet, a communications professor at Northeastern University, says the split with science is most visible and strident when it comes to climate change because the nature of the global problem requires communal joint action, and “for conservatives that’s especially difficult to accept.” He and other experts say climate change is more about tribalism, or who we identify with politically and socially. Liberals believe in global warming, conservatives don’t. (AP Photo/John Minchillo) (AP)
