"I believe there is an overwhelming scientific consensus that climate is warming"

Typical!

I am not interested what he thinks the concensus is (there isn't one). I am not interested whether he thinks climate is warming (it possibly is - but not much). What I am interested in is:

Is there MAN-CAUSED climate warming? (the answer is no!)
