List of scientists opposing global warming consensus

The scientific opinion on global warming, as expressed by the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is that the average global temperature has risen 0.6 ± 0.2°C since the late 19th century, and that "most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities". The IPCC further proposes that temperatures may increase by 1.4°C to 5.8°C between 1990 and 2100.

This view is held by the vast majority of climate scientists and those doing research in closely related fields; however, there are also a small number of scientists who actively disagree with this statement. This page is intended to highlight those scientists who have, since the 2001 IPCC Third Assessment Report, published research or made public comments openly opposing the conclusion that the Earth is warming, that "most of the warming over the last 50 years" has been caused by man's actions, and/or that future warming will reach at least the 1.4°C at the low end of the IPCC range. Disagreements regarding the potential future impacts of such warming are not included on this page.
