File talk:97% of Climate Scientists Confirm Anthroprogenic Global Warming.svg

This graphic and its caption have multiple issues:

1. First, the Anderegg survey that leads our graphic has been heavily criticized. Why should we use it at all? It's not like we're short of "97% agree" surveys.
2. Second, our existing claim that "97–98% of the most published climate researchers say humans are causing global warming" is (imo) an unacceptable simplification of what the controversial paper actually said.
3. Third, all the other "97% agree!" surveys found that those surveyed agreed that the climate is warming, and that human activities have some impact. Which is trivial, and quite different than our present claim.

This issue is currently being discussed at this talk page. Hope to see you there, Pete Tillman (talk) 23:06, 21 March 2012 (UTC)

Correcting text

This graphics text makes claims about the most published. The article did not research the most published. It only looked at the publications that included the word "climate", instead of all their publications. I recommend this graphic be removed, or corrected. Besides John Cook was a cartoonist, activist, and web page designer when this was published, not a reliable source. 70.59.1.74 (talk) 22:57, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
