Yes, well:-
Hardly among the most credible of sources.
I listen to the best. You put faith in the rest.
You've given no reason to suppose that you know any more of the science than I do. Quite the opposite, in fact. Yet you assert that the science is "full of holes". You're keen to believe that, but lack the skills to make the assessment.
There is no denying the truth.....no matter how you try and wrap it................!!!!!!!
Quote:The claim that “97% of scientists agree” is based on 77 anonymous scientists who responded to a an online survey. ...
Actually, there have been
several papers:
Quote:A survey of all peer-reviewed abstracts on the subject 'global climate change' published between 1993 and 2003 ...
Quote:A survey of 3146 earth scientists ...
Quote:... an independent study that surveys all climate scientists who have publicly signed declarations supporting or rejecting the consensus.
Quote:The Vision Prize is an online poll of scientists about climate risk. ...
Approximately 90% of participants responded that human activity has had a primary influence over global temperatures over the past 250 years, with the other 10% answering that it has been a secondary cause, and none answering either that humans have had no influence or that temperatures have not increased.
And those are just the obvious ones.
In addition to which, can you name a single scientific organisation that disagrees with the consensus?
