SOUNDBITE (English) Anthony Leiserowitz, Director, Climate Change Communication, Yale University:\"Today's environment where climate change is now one of the most politically polarised issues in America.

Mid of Tiller sitting in office after being in coal mine LEADIN:Climate change is on the agenda during this year's presidential election in the US.Democrat, Hilary Clinton, has spoken of combatting climate change while on the campaign trail, while Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, has dismissed scientific argument for why the planet is hotting up as a hoax. STORYLINE: Before the planet got too overheated, the United States wasn't that split by global warming, but now emotions are rising with the temperatures.\"I am definitely bearing witness to climate change,\" says Diane Cowan, a marine biologist who studies lobster behavior and ecology.\"I'm making observations as a scientist, because I go out - I take one week of every month of every year to go out and sample habitat and the species and I've seen a lot of changes.\" \"I mean, I read about climate change, I knew the sea level was rising. But until I saw it, until it impacted me directly, I didn't feel it the same way. I didn't understand what it would do.\"Third-generation lobsterman Richard \"Dick\" Sawyer Sr. has seen his livelihood impacted from a change in the waters.\"What we're catching now in a week, I used to catch in a partial tide back when lobstering was good – that's how devastating it is,\" he says.But Sawyer's not sure it's from global warming or pollution from sewer treatment plants and pharmaceutical companies. \"I don't see nobody looking for the cause of all of this or they will blame it on global warming because that's the easiest thing to do,\" he says.\"I say sewer treatment plants, the pollution, the pharmaceuticals that's going into the water every day.\" Some question whether climate change is a man-made phenomenon. Scott Tiller, a 59-year-old underground coal miner in West Virginia, has seen mine after mine close, and says coal is getting a bad rap.\"I don't think we're the cause of any climate change. I mean, maybe somewhat,\" says Tiller.\"But look at you've got all these millions of automobiles running around putting out carbon. Nobody's trying to stop them.\"Well, they say the climate is changing, but are we doing it or is it just the natural thing the earth does?\"Anthony Leiserowitz, director of the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, says climate change is one of the most polarising issues in American politics. \"Today's environment where climate change is now one of the most politically polarised issues in America,\" he says.\"It's more politically polarising than abortion. It's more politically polarising than gay marriage - climate change.\"Overwhelmingly, scientists who study the issue say it is man-made and a real problem. Using basic physics and chemistry and computer simulations, scientists have repeatedly calculated how much extra warming is coming from natural forces and how much comes from humans. The scientists and their peer-reviewed research blame human activity, for the most part.Dozens of scientific measurements show earth is warming. Since 1997, the world has warmed by 0.44 degrees (0.25 degrees Celsius) and 51 monthly or annual global heat records were broken, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.US Democrats (and a number of leading scientists) became more convinced that global warming was a real, man-made threat. But Republicans and Tea Party activists in the US became more convinced that it was - to quote the repeated tweets of presidential nominee Donald Trump - a \"hoax.\" ====Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: info@aparchive.com.
