I keep hearing that scientists disagree on whether climate change is real / caused by humans / really all that bad. Whats right?
Our position is simple: Serious debate about climate change has been over since 1990. The scientific work since then has consistently painted a more and more worrying picture. The controversy that exists is largely political. While some scientists disagree over things like the contribution of solar activity and other natural phenomena, these are very minor points that do not contradict the international scientific consensus that climate change is real, is caused by humans, and is a major threat to both human civilization and countless plant and animal species around the world.
