Its funny you should mention this -- I've been in a heated facebook argument with a former classmate over this (aren't social networking sites great?) The wikipedia entry is good (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_opinion_on_climate_change#Surveys_of_scientists_and_scientific_literature), but the best article, in my opinion, is the Oreskes 2004 Science article (http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/reprint/306/5702/1686.pdf -- you'll need access to Science Mag to see this).

Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Reference for % of scientists that think climate change is 
caused by humans?

My brother (who works in marketing) recently sent me the e-mail below. I
don't intend this to turn into a discussion of the general public's
understanding of uncertainty in science, I am just wondering if anyone
is aware of a study that looked at the percentage of scientists that
think climate change is caused primarily by anthropogenic factors vs.
entirely a natural cycle.
Thanks.
