    While not 97%, those percentages are more than sufficient to prompt government and business to begin taking steps to gain control over our CO2 emissions.

    Actually businesses are merely looking to make money off of it. Most of the money is handed-out via crony-capitalism from the government using your tax dollars. Al Gore is an excellent example of this nonsense.

    Would that include energy sector businesses?

    Yes... energy sector businesses will actually be some of the biggest beneficiaries. It is an odd twist to the whole "global warming" thing. The biggest loser however is coal, and utilities with coal fired power plants.

  7. One survey among many........ only the US........weathermen are not climatologists.

    Among the world's most published climatologists the consensus is closer to 100%.

    A good way to see that is by looking authors that deny AGW.

    Only one — ONE — of the 9,137 authors of peer-reviewed climate change articles rejected anthropogenic global warming. Geochemist James Powell did the research on publications from November 2012 and December 2013. (But if a year-long sample isn’t good enough for you, Powell previously examined 21 years of peer-reviewed literature and found that only 24 out of 13,950 articles — or two-tenths of a percent — came out and rejected human-caused climate change.)
    The lone dissident, S. V. Avakyan, wrote in Herald of the Russian Academy of Sciences, “The contribution of the greenhouse effect of carbon-containing gases to global warming turns out to be insignificant.” But Coby Beck smacks this idea down in his “How to talk to a climate skeptic” series.

    Sure is an odd twist. As odd as unicorns.

    Don't kid yourself, alternative fuels are going nowhere anytime soon, but stricter regulation and some form of carbon trading are imminent.
