Does the latest ‘climate consensus’ study show a genuine agreement among scientists, or just a statistical construct?

This article reports on a recently published study which declares an overwhelming consensus among experts – more than 99% – as to the human-cause of climate change.

I don’t intend to argue whether there is indeed a consensus among scientists, but rather, I wish to highlight how easy it is to be mislead with ‘scientific consensus’ headlines, and ultimately, why it matters.
