• Resumen

  • The article discusses popular attitudes towards climate change and anthropogenic global warming (AGW). According to the author, there is a scientific consensus on the reality of AGW supported by a convergence of independently-researched evidence. Details on literature reviews of scientific studies, which show that most research supports AGW and that research opposing AGW often contains methodological errors, are presented. The scientific process is also discussed.
