evidence: Read more: Consensus confirmed: over 90% of climate scientists believe we're causing global warming [...] The 2013 study examined 11,944 climate research papers and found almost one-third of them expressed a position on the cause of global warming. Of these 4,014 papers, 97% endorsed the consensus position that humans are the cause, 1% were uncertain, and 2% explicitly rejected it. [...] The recently published Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) Synthesis Report, says "it is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean and land", and warns that the Paris Agreement goals of 1.5°C and 2°C above pre-industrial levels will be exceeded during this century without dramatic emissions reductions.
