Regarding the above quote, it is possible that scientists who do not believe in man-made global climate change aren't releasing papers about their findings, but frankly, scientsts that don't produce any documented evidence are poor scientists indeed.

The only poll I've ever seen with more than 20% of scientists against the idea of man-made climate change was conducted by a Conservative group whose stated goal is to reduce regulations. Their sample group had clear political agendas, since belief in global warming seems to split along party lines in the political, if not the academic arena. (I'm just going to assume that there aren't more Democratic scientists than Republican ones, although I am only speculating.)
Wikipedia is not a credible source since anyone can access and edit it. You know what that means, bias. What about this site?

"A survey of climatologists from more than 20 nations has revealed scientists are evenly split on whether humans are responsible for changes in global climate. The findings refute a widely reported study by a California “Gender and Science” professor who claimed that, based on her personal examination of 928 scientific papers on the issue, every single one reached the conclusion that global warming is real and primarily caused by humans"..............
