Except the survey you reference doesn't come anywhere close to that stupid allegation.
It is close to a direct quote from the survey. That you seem to have missed the point the exact question *matters* when evaluating these kinds of "appeals to authority". The 97% nonsense that gets tossed around is pure propaganda that alarmists only use because they cherry picked questions that gave them the answer they liked. It is not a useful starting point for any discussion. OTOH, the survey I referenced is very broad and covers a lot of ground. If you see other questions that you feel are more meaningful from a policy perspective then say what they are. Note that we don't really care about how many scientists think CO2 is a GHG or that humans are waning the planet. Policy related questions are things like "How convinced are you that climate change poses a very serious and dangerous threat to humanity?".
