More than 99.9% of peer reviewed studies show that humans are the primary cause of global warming


AND


Abstract​

While controls over the Earth's climate system have undergone rigorous hypothesis-testing since the 1800s, questions over the scientific consensus of the role of human activities in modern climate change continue to arise in public settings. We update previous efforts to quantify the scientific consensus on climate change by searching the recent literature for papers sceptical of anthropogenic-caused global warming. From a dataset of 88125 climate-related papers published since 2012, when this question was last addressed comprehensively, we examine a randomized subset of 3000 such publications. We also use a second sample-weighted approach that was specifically biased with keywords to help identify any sceptical peer-reviewed papers in the whole dataset. We identify four sceptical papers out of the sub-set of 3000, as evidenced by abstracts that were rated as implicitly or explicitly sceptical of human-caused global warming. In our sample utilizing pre-identified sceptical keywords we found 28 papers that were implicitly or explicitly sceptical. We conclude with high statistical confidence that the scientific consensus on human-caused contemporary climate change—expressed as a proportion of the total publications—exceeds 99% in the peer reviewed scientific literature.



The consensus means something. For all practical purposes, there is no longer ANY scientific debate on the primary cause of global warming.

So you're going to chain yourself to the Chinese Embassy?????
 
Doubtful . He probably really does believe his own nonsense .
It is a disease syndrome linked to Cognitive Rigidity.

Posters like Crick need to furnish independent documentation of their mental health and details of ongoing medical treatments .
His output has the hallmarks of an obsessive .
Invariably they have no specialist relevant qualifications .
OCD?
 
An ice age is a climate change. The article is not saying that humans caused all climate change. It is saying that there is an overwhelming consensus among published climate scientists that humans are primarily responsible for the warming observed since the Industrial Revolution.

Science is NOT done by consensus, you're talking about a cult
 
I can't understand why you continue to think that if you post the same nonsense over and over again, that somehow something will change? Repeating the same shit everyday doesn't change the facts that were used to defeat the argument with the very first post.
It is important to recognize the techniques being deployed and to point it out as often as the propaganda is posted. I am not saying cricket is cognitive of what or why he/she is posting. It is obvious cricket is not intelligent, it shows when cricket is challenged, hence I doubt cricket is intentionally using a propaganda technique


In 1869, before Lenin was even born, in The Crown of a Life it was written by Isa Blagden:


If a lie is only printed often enough, it becomes a quasi-truth, and if such a truth is repeated often enough, it becomes an article of belief, a dogma, and men will die for it.

I only see recent (last 15 years) references attributing it to Vladimir Lenin.


I think the misattribution grew out of a statement like this one in the 1966 book Great China Danger:


Actually, Peking has operated, as Moscow has since the days of Lenin, on a number of principles which taken together can be called the technique of the "great lie." Among these are: 1) make it big enough and people will believe part of it; (2) repeat it often enough and you will convince some people; (3) say it in enough different ways, and you will convince others...

So it went from saying that is what Lenin did, to making it be a direct quote.


Also, a different Lenin is quoted in the 2001 book The Duke of Havana: Baseball, Cuba, and the Search for the American Dream:


“There's a saying in Cuba: A lie repeated many times becomes the truth,” said Lenin Rivero

The misattribution could have also originated from this quote. Lenin Rivero is a Cuban who defected to the USA in 1998 and who was named after Vladimir Lenin
 
Do you have any evidence to support that charge? Fabricated and cherry picked data, eh. Time and time again, eh. Personally, I think you're in la-la land, but, hey, let's see what you've got.
sure, post Michael Mann's data.
 
Michael Crichton got Mann to admit the hockey stick chart was an ALGORithm that returned a hockey stick graph regardless of data it was fed....
So it isn't always the data then, it is also the algorithms. hmmmmmmm
 
I doubt cricket is intentionally using a propaganda technique



crick's credibility includes the claim he lives in FLA but has never ever heard of the term CANES....



Go Canes! | Catch༺ ༻All | Pinterest




 
So it isn't always the data then, it is also the algorithms. hmmmmmmm


It shows there is a conscious, deliberate attempt to fudge and lie and claim "warming" that never existed in the data.

HIDE THE DECLINE is a Mann quote from ClimateGate.

How is that practicing science, to HIDE DATA...????

2010 was an amazing year in the revelations made by AGW Cult members themselves.

BBC "Do you agree that from 1995 to the present there has been no statistically-significant global warming. Phil Jones: Yes..."

BBC News - Q&A: Professor Phil Jones

Subsequent to this interview, Jones was intellectually abused and assaulted by his fellow Cultists who saw the $ would soon stop flowing and suddenly reversed himself.

Later in 2010 IPCC 3 co-author Ottmar Edenhofer said

"But one must say clearly that we redistribute de facto the world’s wealth by climate policy. Obviously, the owners of coal and oil will not be enthusiastic about this. One has to free oneself from the illusion that international climate policy is environmental policy. This has almost nothing to do with environmental policy anymore, with problems such as deforestation or the ozone hole."


IPCC Official: “Climate Policy Is Redistributing The World's Wealth” - Net Zero Watch

Also in 2010, there was less than 3 years on the "Ice caps disappearing" countdown clock

See why no sane person takes this seriously? No science, failed predictions, they admit it's a wealth redistribution scheme
 
Okay, demonstrate

Surveys of scientists and scientific literature​

Main article: Surveys of scientists' views on climate change
Various surveys have been conducted to evaluate scientific opinion on global warming. They have concluded that almost all climate scientists support the idea of anthropogenic climate change.[1]

In 2004, the geologist and historian of science Naomi Oreskes summarized a study of the scientific literature on climate change.[137] She analyzed 928 abstracts of papers from refereed scientific journals between 1993 and 2003 and concluded that there is a scientific consensus on the reality of anthropogenic climate change.

Oreskes divided the abstracts into six categories: explicit endorsement of the consensus position, evaluation of impacts, mitigation proposals, methods, paleoclimate analysis, and rejection of the consensus position. Seventy-five per cent of the abstracts were placed in the first three categories (either explicitly or implicitly accepting the consensus view); 25% dealt with methods or paleoclimate, thus taking no position on current anthropogenic climate change. None of the abstracts disagreed with the consensus position, which the author found to be "remarkable". According to the report, "authors evaluating impacts, developing methods, or studying paleoclimatic change might believe that current climate change is natural. However, none of these papers argued that point."

In 2007, Harris Interactive surveyed 489 randomly selected members of either the American Meteorological Society or the American Geophysical Union for the Statistical Assessment Service (STATS) at George Mason University. 97% of the scientists surveyed agreed that global temperatures had increased during the past 100 years; 84% said they personally believed human-induced warming was occurring, and 74% agreed that "currently available scientific evidence" substantiated its occurrence. Catastrophic effects in 50–100 years would likely be observed according to 41%, while 44% thought the effects would be moderate and about 13 percent saw relatively little danger. 5% said they thought human activity did not contribute to greenhouse warming.[138][139][140][141]

Dennis Bray and Hans von Storch conducted a survey in August 2008 of 2058 climate scientists from 34 countries.[142] A web link with a unique identifier was given to each respondent to eliminate multiple responses. A total of 373 responses were received giving an overall response rate of 18.2%. No paper on climate change consensus based on this survey has been published yet (February 2010), but one on another subject has been published based on the survey.[143]

The survey was made up of 76 questions split into a number of sections. There were sections on the demographics of the respondents, their assessment of the state of climate science, how good the science is, climate change impacts, adaptation and mitigation, their opinion of the IPCC, and how well climate science was being communicated to the public. Most of the answers were on a scale from 1 to 7 from "not at all" to "very much".

To the question "How convinced are you that climate change, whether natural or anthropogenic, is occurring now?", 67.1% said they very much agreed, 26.7% agreed to some large extent, 6.2% said to they agreed to some small extent (2–4), none said they did not agree at all. To the question "How convinced are you that most of recent or near future climate change is, or will be, a result of anthropogenic causes?" the responses were 34.6% very much agree, 48.9% agreeing to a large extent, 15.1% to a small extent, and 1.35% not agreeing at all.

A poll performed by Peter Doran and Maggie Kendall Zimmerman at University of Illinois at Chicago received replies from 3,146 of the 10,257 polled Earth scientists. Results were analyzed globally and by specialization. 76 out of 79 climatologists who "listed climate science as their area of expertise and who also have published more than 50% of their recent peer-reviewed papers on the subject of climate change" believed that mean global temperatures had risen compared to pre-1800s levels. Seventy-five of 77 believed that human activity is a significant factor in changing mean global temperatures. Among all respondents, 90% agreed that temperatures have risen compared to pre-1800 levels, and 82% agreed that humans significantly influence the global temperature. Economic geologists and meteorologists were among the biggest doubters, with only 47 percent and 64 percent, respectively, believing in significant human involvement. The authors summarised the findings:[144]

It seems that the debate on the authenticity of global warming and the role played by human activity is largely nonexistent among those who understand the nuances and scientific basis of long-term climate processes.
A 2010 paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States (PNAS) reviewed publication and citation data for 1,372 climate researchers and drew the following two conclusions:[145]

(i) 97–98% of the climate researchers most actively publishing in the field support the tenets of ACC (Anthropogenic Climate Change) outlined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, and (ii) the relative climate expertise and scientific prominence of the researchers unconvinced of ACC are substantially below that of the convinced researchers.
A 2013 paper in Environmental Research Letters reviewed 11,944 abstracts of scientific papers matching "global warming" or "global climate change". They found 4,014 which discussed the cause of recent global warming, and of these "97.1% endorsed the consensus position that humans are causing global warming".[146] This study was criticised in 2016 by Richard Tol,[147] but strongly defended by a companion paper in the same volume.[148]


Peer-reviewed studies of the consensus on anthropogenic global warming
A 2012 analysis of published research on global warming and climate change between 1991 and 2012 found that of the 13,950 articles in peer-reviewed journals, only 24 rejected anthropogenic global warming.[149] A follow-up analysis looking at 2,258 peer-reviewed climate articles with 9,136 authors published between November 2012 and December 2013 revealed that only one of the 9,136 authors rejected anthropogenic global warming.[150] His 2015 paper on the topic, covering 24,210 articles published by 69,406 authors during 2013 and 2014 found only five articles by four authors rejecting anthropogenic global warming. Over 99.99% of climate scientists did not reject AGW in their peer-reviewed research.[151]

James Lawrence Powell reported in 2017 that using rejection as the criterion of consensus, five surveys of the peer-reviewed literature from 1991 to 2015, including several of those above, combine to 54,195 articles with an average consensus of 99.94%.[152] In November 2019, his survey of over 11,600 peer-reviewed articles published in the first seven months of 2019 showed that the consensus had reached 100%.[2]

A survey conducted in 2021 found that of a random selection of 3,000 papers examined from 88,125 peer-reviewed studies related to climate that were published since 2012, only 4 were sceptical about man-made climate change.[153]

Depending on expertise, a 2021 survey of 2780 Earth scientist showed that between 91% to 100% agreed human activity is causing climate change. Among climate scientists, 98.7% agreed, a number that grows to 100% when only the climate scientists with high level of expertise are counted (20+ papers published).[4]

Support your contention.
My contention is that you are naive.

Crick posted a abstract, thinking it was a study. When challenged crick still could not conclude what an abstract is nor a study.

Abstracts are written by simple human beings, with the same character flaws, shortcomings, and political motivations as any other human being. To think that all abstracts are not propaganda is not the logic of an intelligent human being.

Crick, this is your OP. I have torn it apart. It is up to you to somehow prove your OP is anything other than propaganda.

Science is NOT done by consensus Mr. Flat Earth
 
An ice age is a climate change. The article is not saying that humans caused all climate change. It is saying that there is an overwhelming consensus among published climate scientists that humans are primarily responsible for the warming observed since the Industrial Revolution.
“Consensus” doesn’t mean diddly dick.

It is not a part of the scientific method.

You can repeat the propaganda all you want. It just shows you have no depth of knowledge and understanding of what you read.

wikipedia as source? Post the actual studies, which you never do, you still claim abstracts, are studies

People studying papers, using computers to find keywords, and algorithms is not a survey of what scientists believe.

The same tired propaganda, "there is a consensus", yet nobody has talked to the people nor read their papers.
