Page 1 of 3 Only about one in three Alberta earth scientists and engineers
believe the culprit behind climate change has been identified, a new
poll reported today.
The expert jury is divided, with 26 per cent
attributing global warming to human activity like burning fossil fuels
and 27 per cent blaming other causes such as volcanoes, sunspots, earth
crust movements and natural evolution of the planet.
A
99-per-cent majority believes the climate is changing. But 45 per cent
blame both human and natural influences, and 68 per cent disagree with
the popular statement that "the debate on the scientific causes of
recent climate change is settled."
The divisions showed up in a canvass of more than 51,000 specialists
licensed to practice the highly educated occupations by the Association
of Professional Engineers, Geologists and Geophysicists of Alberta.
