Global Warming & Scientists Opinions - WAFB 9 News Baton Rouge, Louisiana News, Weather, Sports

Question:

Trolling the web I find more folks that believe that global warming is
happening than than those that don't believe it.  Even if 95% of scientists agree that
there is a 95% chance it is happening doesn't mean it is.

Answer:
 
Well, I have not taken a poll, but I think that if you did an HONEST survey of the world's climate scientists, you would find that the vast majority (maybe 90% or more!) WOULD agree that the planet is warmer now that 100 years ago.  But ... I'd be willing to bet that fewer than 70% are completely convinced that human activity accounts for most or all of that warming.
