    No, they don't. A majority of scientists? Not one of the scientists I know - who doesn't work for a lobbying group or left-leaning "think tank" aka lobbying group - claims to believe that Global Warming is caused by humans.

    So, where do you get the idea that "a majority" have formed a "consensus"? And more importantly, how do you know that they came to that conclusion based on solid reasoning and not just from accepting what "everyone knows"? Scientists aren't immune to that, you know.
