There's both kinds. Those who refuse to believe the mean average temperature is going up have been declining in numbers as the evidence becomes more and more irrefutable. So they have been jumping to the "OK but we can't know for sure that it is human activity causing it!" camp. There's also a third camp, which says "OK I get it, human activity is causing temperatures to rise, but we can't really do anything meaningful to slow it down, much less reverse it!"

That last one is not denialism (maybe defeatism) and from my vantage point isn't too far from reality. I have yet to see any realistic proposed solution(s) to climate change.

There is a lot of scientific evidence for that last point. (Which, ironically, puts environmentalists on the back foot, causing them to deny science because a big chunk of environmentalism is based on political ideology and not the science or economics of the environment.)
