It is a consensus if they all agree with one another, apparently.

"No I am not. Here are the following issues that liberals have claimed to have a "consensus" on:"

Sure you are. Where is your proof that there is no consensus on climate change?

"The consensus is that there is an effect, "

Yes. Finally.

"but there is no "consensus" on how severe it is or how much drastic action is needed."

Moving the goal posts, Tenchu. First you claimed there was no consensus at all. Now you have modified your argument when backed into a corner.

And that isn't even really true. While there is quibbling about the details, the consensus is that it isn't getting any better as long as we keep dumping CO2 at an ever increasing rate. And it takes a profoundly ignorant individual to say that even small changes don't matter. They do.

Ask yourself, why is this only controversial among right wing bloggers in the US?
