Green Chart of the Day: 7/23/10

In one of the first opinion polls released since the BP Gulf well was capped, Rasmussen Reports found 56% of US voters still believe offshore oil drilling should be allowed.

Nevertheless, 72% of voters are at least somewhat concerned that new offshore oil drilling will cause environmental problems, up 8% from last month—and that includes 39% who are “very concerned.”

Overall, however, since polling on the question began in May, there has been little change in public sentiment.
