"The 97% is bogus" Deniers think everything is bogus. Multiple studies published in peer -reviewed scientific journals ( 1 ) show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree : https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/ 1 References J. Cook, et al, " Consensus on consensus: a synthesis of consensus estimates on human-caused global warming," Environmental Research Letters* Vol. 11 No. 4, (13 April 2016); DOI:10.1088/1748-9326/11/4/048002 Quotation from page 6: "The number of papers rejecting AGW [Anthropogenic, or human-caused, Global Warming] is a miniscule proportion of the published research, with the percentage slightly decreasing over time. Among papers expressing a position on AGW, an overwhelming percentage (97.2% based on self-ratings, 97.1% based on abstract ratings) endorses the scientific consensus on AGW.” J.
