That’s right. 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. Plus, Avakyan clearly admits his bias on the very first page of his article:
