In terms of scientific consensus, there is not scientific body of note internationally that disputes AGW.
In terms of media coverage, I am not sure of how it is aboard, but the American media has tried to cover AGW in a “balanced” fashion when the fact of the matter is there really is no other side to the argument. Secondly, this has been further exacerbated by a sophisticated disinformation campaign by the same “think tanks” that tried for years to convince the American people that there was no link between smoking and cancer.
Then there is the opinion page of the WSJ…

And the fact that the IPCC is being taken apart by the very scientists that put it together? Is that rambling and immature?
