2012 Lefsrud & Meyer did a study of studies to conclude 36% have a "strong belief that climate change is happening, that it is not a normal cycle of nature, and humans are the main or central cause." (agree with IPCC), 64% fall into one of the 4 categories that are skeptical of alarmist global warming claims. And explicit endorsements in AGW has declined from 1993-2008.

2012 Lefsrud & Meyer

"Science or Science Fiction? Professionals’ Discursive Construction of Climate Change", published in peer reviews journal, “Organization Studies".

This uses a few other studies (including APEGGA), to do a compound aggregate study of studies:

36% have a "strong belief that climate change is happening, that it is not a normal cycle of nature, and humans are the main or central cause." (agree with IPCC)
64% fall into one of the 4 categories that are skeptical of alarmist global warming claims
24 percent fit the “Nature Is Overwhelming” model
Explicit endorsement of anthropogenic climate change (in Science Journals) had fallen from 75% between 1993-2003 to 45% from 2004-2008.
