As I understand it, the 97% refers to (1) belief that earth is warming and (2) belief that humans have at least SOME contribution to that warming. That two statements are not really controversial in the first place
They're controversial on this board. Didn't you know that burning fossil fuels is actually good for the environment?

Thats correct. In the last 70 years or so the Earth has "greened" and the health of humanity has flourished..not in spite of fossil fuels, but because of fossil fuels.

A couple of these bad boys make the burning of fossil fuels a drop in the bucket.
