All scientific arguments for and against AGW became irrelevant the day the debate became religious and political. The only thing that matters (at least to me) is the weaponization of this consensus by believers in the developed world against the energy infrastructure of the developing world.
This phenomenon used to be called "Global Warming" till narrative builders decided that the term was inconvenient and switched over to "Climate Change." You can see Google Trends for the terms over a period of time and even predict with some accuracy as to which party is in power in any given US state based on searches for the two terms in those states.[1] Then you have the nice propagandists at Wikipedia rewrite history by pretending that the article had always been on "Climate Change."[2][3][4][5]
This is how you manufacture consent. And consensus.
