The scientific consensus on climate change—that human activities are warming the planet—rests on decades of peer-reviewed research across multiple disciplines. Debates persist, however, about whether this consensus reflects genuine scientific agreement or has been shaped by funding patterns, institutional incentives, and political pressures that favor certain conclusions. Understanding this question requires examining both the robustness of the underlying evidence and the structures through which climate science is conducted, funded, and communicated.
