That's kind of the whole point of what came out last month. Then they fall back on Bill Murray's line from Ghostbusters, "Back off man, I'm a scientist."

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Looks like an organized buch of scientists with a common agenda to me.
I was referring to all scientists. Certainly these scientists were organized, but that does not mean all scientists or even all climate scientists are. I was talking about all scientists because someone tried to use the fact that these scientists messed up to disprove evolution by hinting that they are the same scientists that support evolution. I don’t mind if you don’t trust science when it comes to the current climate debate, but we shouldn’t over react and accuse all scientific work as suspect unless there is evidence, not just conjecture.
