Climate Change is Real and Man-Made, Say Scientists Who Actually Know What They´re Talking About

Though climate change skeptics like to argue that the scientific jury is out on whether human activity contributes to climate change, a new study finds that the experts in climate science share a "striking agreement" with the IPCC´s conclusions.

The study, which was published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, finds that the expertise of scientists who are convinced by climate change evidence "vastly overshadows" the expertise of climate change skeptics.

The report also says that media coverage of climate change has created confusion among the public, as media outlets falsely portray skeptics as being just as qualified and credible as experts who conclude that mankind is harming the climate.
