There are still voices, getting a disproportionate amount of media coverage, that attempt to cast doubt on the truth of climate change caused by human induced global warming. The overwhelming consensus of scientific opinion seems to have no effect on these folks.

"Members of the public who are tempted to be swayed by the denier fringe should ask themselves how it is possible, if human-caused climate change is just a hoax, that:

The leaderships of the national academies of sciences of the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Russia, China, and India, among others, are on record saying that global climate change is real, caused mainly by humans, and reason for early, concerted action.

This is also the overwhelming majority view among the faculty members of the earth sciences departments at every first-rank university in the world."
