Regarding the 95 percent of climate science researchers consensus  that   
   human activity is a cause of climate change:   
      
   >"Science" is never about consensus.   
      
   Correction, it is and has always been about it.   
      
   Ancient consensus by science was the earth was the center of the heavenly   
   bodies.  Observation and common sense was the basis for the consensus.   
      
   As people came  to observe flukes in the observation of the orbit of the   
   planets; this conclusion came under increasing doubt.   Complex explanitory   
   models to account for the flukes arose.   
      
   A new view that the sun was orbitedd by the planets solved the flukes of   
   the observvations and did so in a more straight forward less complex   
   manner.   
      
   A new sun centric consensus arose in support of that view and is now the   
   standard explanitory model.   
      
   That is how science proceeds.  A consensus model persists until new info   
   and/or a model with greater explanitory ppower comes along.   
      
   So it is with the consensus on human related climate change.
