Resumen
Descripción
The hundreds of scientists comprising the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) maintain that there is a consensus that humans are changing the global
climate. Yet many commentators in the media dispute this, and a reader of such commentaries
would surely conclude that climate change is a controversy rather than a consensus. This is
simply incorrect – the overwhelming majority of climate scientists accept the reality of the
greenhouse effect and its impact on the current climate. The main arguments advanced by
media commentators to dispute the IPCC position will be examined and rebutted.
