.."humans are causing global warming is the position of the Academies of Science from 80 countries plus many scientific organizations that study climate science.
..95% of active climate researchers actively publishing climate papers endorse the consensus position... the greater the climate expertise among those surveyed, the higher the consensus on human-caused global warming.
..those who oppose taking action to curb climate change have engaged in a misinformation campaign to deny the existence of the expert consensus...(most times supported & funded by business interests)
..they’ve been largely successful, as the public badly underestimates the expert climate-consensus, in what is called... the 'consensus-gap'...
..only 16% of Americans realizing the consensus is above 90%.
..scientists back[ing] up their opinions with research & data that survive the peer-review process..

..the Republican-party is the party of business-interests... and
..climate-change-denialism suits perfectly their business-as-usual model
