196 countries agreed to a global pact to reduce emissions as part of the method for reducing greenhouse gas. Their leaders and the vast majority of environmental scientists agreed the issue was pressing enough to negotiate and come to agreement on the issue of global climate change.

OTOH, we have numerous uneducated civilians, non-scientists, politicians and others who ignore the scientific consensus and point to a HANDFUL of naysayers (some even scientists) as the reason to stick their collective heads in the sand (or wedged tightly in their anal sphincters). Well, at least they're in the minority and can therefore do less damage.
