When you consider that about 50,000 doctorates are handed out in the US every year, not counting the "Master Degrees" or "Bachelor degrees" that got lumped into this count, my guess is 31,000 rapidly becomes a minority. And that is only in the US. Of course many more degrees are handed out globally. The total number of existing degree holders is large beyond guessing.
My point: While 31,000 may sound large, statistically it is probably just a small portion of the overall universe.
I also don't see how this project would "alleviate the current energy emergency and prevent future emergencies". Market forces don't care what scientists say, nor do Chinese and Indian consumers.

Would you give dissenters on the "consensus" premise who are past and present members of the actual UN IPCC more credence? There's a significant number of these folks too, FWIW.
Do you personally feel there is
consensus,
i.e. everyone agrees, that man is a significant contributor to "climate change"?
