The number of climatologists who deny climate change is very small compared to the overall scientific community. The overwhelming consensus among climate scientists is that climate change is happening and that human activities are the primary cause. Various studies and surveys have shown that approximately 97% or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree on the evidence of climate change and its anthropogenic causes.
For instance, a 2013 study published in the journal "Environmental Research Letters" reviewed nearly 12,000 peer-reviewed papers on climate science and found that 97.1% of those that expressed a position endorsed the consensus view that humans are causing global warming. Other surveys and studies have consistently found similar levels of agreement among climate scientists.
While there are a few climatologists who might dispute the consensus, they represent a very small minority within the scientific community.
