All of these organizations agree that significant human-caused climate change is occurring

Perhaps you haven't looked into the work of McIntyre and McKitrick. They have not disputed that human-caused climate change is occurring nor have they made any claim that global warming doesn't exist. What they are saying (and the NAS now apparently agrees) is that the portion of Mann's hockey stick graph prior to the 16th century is invalid.

Apparently there is a report soon to be released by three independent statisticians on Mann's methods from a statistical perspective. This may get interesting. Stay tuned.
