Because some people are idiots.

Especially the ones who ignore scientific facts. 

There seems to be a lot of that in America. People who deny global warming, young earth creationists, and the like.

None moreso than any other western country on this planet.  I challenge anyone to argue that North Americans are more naive on the subject of Global Warming than Europeans, South Americans, Australians, Asians, Africans, etc....

In all fairness the Aussies did just elect a moron who doesn't believe in climate change as their damn PM. They've got some 'splaining to do.
