so you would prefer nasa didn't specify they are looking at those actively publishing? seems necessary info. 'extremely likely' is hardly qualifying either, more a broad description of their findings. it only appears qualifying if you assume nasa is pushing a political agenda.

 

 

What I am saying is that the statement does not include the entire pool of climate scientists let alone the other scientists that may not be labeled 'climate scientists' but have interest or knowledge of the climate, solar activity, mass and energy balances, or other related area that may disagree.  Therefore it appears that the 97% quoted is potentially an inflated number massaged to fit a message.

nasa is stating the exact group they're referencing and there are ways to independently verify who is involved/excluded by referencing individual work. still say you think nasa has a political agenda, especially with the  'massaged number to fit a message'.

They very much may have a political agenda, or potentially a financial one as they need to keep their dollars flowing.

so what would convince you that there is an issue at hand that you wouldn't consider mere agenda, but an actual threat that needs action?
