Science:
According to a paper
published
yesterday in the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, only
2% of the world's top 50 climate researchers are unconvinced
that humankind's emission of greenhouse gases is warming
Earth's climate. To reach that conclusion, the paper's authors
used researchers' signed statements for or against the most
recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change assessment and
Google Scholar to identify and rank active climate researchers.
As Eli Kintisch reports in
Science, some climate scientists are skeptical of the
validity of those selection criteria.
