Hello, I am Zach Thannum, and I’m a freshman from LA out of Sierra Canyon high school. I’m interested in majoring in economics and have yet to decide whether I will minor in data analysis or IDEAS; who knows, I may end up doing both! I am also a member of the Wesleyan football team and Be the Match Biorepository.

Abstract: The goals of the present analysis include 1) establishing the relationship between political party affiliation and climate change concern, 2) determining whether or not there is a relationship between climate change belief and education levels, and 3) determine whether there is a relation between age demographics and global warming belief. If there are any relations, these will then be investigated within the context of political parties to see if there is a variance in relation across the political spectrum to understand further what factors relate to climate change belief.
