Stark before-and-after evidence of how cast polymer has changed since the 1990s: the nrxt photo (below) shows a custom bathtub and shower made with white cultured marble, now known as engineered composite. The âafterâ photo (pictured here) is a granite-look engineered composite remake, called Venetian Gold, produced by Mobile Marble (Mobile, Ala.).
While polls of scientists actively working in the filed of climate science indicate strong general agreement that Earth is warming and human activity is a significant factor, 31,000 scientists say there is no convincing evidence that humans can or will cause catastrophic heating of the atmosphere.
Various surveys have been conducted to evaluate scientific opinion on global warming. They have concluded that the majority of scientists support the idea of anthropogenic climate change. In 2004, the geologist and historian of science Naomi Oreskes summarized a study of the scientific literature on climate change. She analyzed 928 abstracts of papers from refereed scientific journals between 1993 and 2003 and concluded that there is a scientific consensus on the reality of anthropogenic climate change.
