AKA The Usual Suspects.

You realise that there are literally THOUSANDS of climate scientists who endorse AGW vs the handful of skeptical climate scientists out there?

Majority opinion can be dangerous and means nothing as far as determining the truth. We must interrogate this issue just like Galelio didn't buy the concept that heavy objects fall faster than light objects.

Galileo keeps getting brought up in these discussions. What people overlook, is that the scientific method (and all the due process that goes with it) did not exist then as it does now. The reason there is scientific consensus on AGW is because no other hypothesis better explains current climate change. Consensus itself does not determine truth, but it does indicate to the lay person where the best science lies.
