97% (or something like that), do agree.

Of course what they agree with is that Earth has warmed and that human activity has played a role in this warming.

That isn't the same as "human caused emissions of CO2 are the overwhelming reason for warming and will lead to a massive civilization threatening disaster if such emissions are not greatly reduced soon".

No Fringe like that humans cannot possibly have a role in the CO2 increase in the atmosphere. And even if they did, it cannot possibly influence the climate. And Tyndall's work on the greenhouse effect has never been tested in the lab.

Or the fringe science of expecting that if you increase the cost of labor somehow, mysteriously, the demand for it will increase?

And then there is stuff like this. No one has made that claim. The fundamental question behind this is how elastic the demand for labor is. You seem to be of the opinion that it is very elastic. Studies have shown that isn't the case. Or at least isn't the case when the cost of labor moves up relatively slowly.
