99% of climatologists agree global warming is manmade

This is what scientific consensus looks like -- the vast majority of scientists who spend their lives studying the climate agree that climate change is happening and that it's because of us.

My buddy Jonathon Colman passed on a link to a fantastic set of infographics from Information is Beautiful

http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/2009/climate-change-a-consensus-among-scientists/

that show just how clear the scientific consensus behind global warming is. 99% of publishing climatologists — you know, the people who spend their lives studying the science of climate — agree that climate change is happening and that it's because of humans.

Off the back of the recent Climate Skeptics vs The Consensus image,

http://www.informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations/climate-change-deniers-vs-the-consensus/

we were curious how many scientists might make up ‘The Consensus’.

2. But the media STILL has to give equal time to the deniers.
