Hi koan; Re: "When 97% of the top climatologists believe something to be true and a danger ...";

What you're stating is not true. That is, even the biased papers (that show the results of polls and literature examinations that are controlled by true believers in warmist fantasies) do not show that 97% of the top climatologists believe that global warming is "a danger".

For example, here's a typical warmist paper on the subject, note no mention of the word "danger":

Quantifying the consensus on anthropogenic global warming in the scientific literature

Adding the "danger" has been done by the media and interested parties for a variety of reasons. The media likes an exciting story, it helps sell sugar water and toilet cleaners. And the interested parties hype their research.

To support your point, what you want is a poll taken of top climatologists showing that they believe that we should "have an expensive carbon tax" or "make using coal illegal" or whatever other political goal you're looking to support. But you don't have that.

Instead, plenty of top scientists have stated that global warming, though real, is not a danger and plenty have stated that climate change is largely a consequence of natural changes. You can visit the wikipedia page to learn more:
