and is convinced that human activities are the major cause of the global warming that has been measured

This is a paraphrase, not a quote. The quote doesn't say this. Some of my friends, meteorological scientists, don't talk like this but concern themselves with data and mathematical models. You want Reynolds numbers and Bournoulli cells, fine, but otherwise don't waste precious time gabbing. Dragging scientists into the politics is probably impossible and just annoys them.

Although the vast majority of climate researchers are persuaded that the evidence, combined with computer models, show that global warming is real and dangerous, a few scientists still hold to the view that most of the changes are due more to natural cycles than human-induced causes.

Although the vast majority of climate researchers are persuaded by the offer of government grants to agree that the evidence and models show global warming is real, a few scientists have refused to feed at the trough of the government and state that there is no convincing evidence and models which can't be trusted for two weeks are being used to make implications about changes on a geologic time scale.

Wouldn't that have been a better way for them to report this?
