From the way you present it, it seems that support in the scientific community for the position against is as strong as support for the position that it is being manipulated by man made activities. Its not. Its not even close.


but the veracity of an understanding of the natural world is not determined by a plebiscite. The fact that most scientists concur with the general theory of global warming simply indicates that given the date the model is the "best fit"
