The same thing happens with Global Warming being attributed to Anthropogenic means. Well over 90% of scientists believe that global warming is anthropogenic; however if you look at those who are specifically involved in climate related science the "consensus" soon dissolves.
When people argue that "90% of scientists believe in Anthropogenic climate change", they are committing the logical fallacy of appealing to the majority. In all arguments of this type, we need to base our arguments on the scientific evidence at hand. Whether or not a majority of scientists believe that for example; anthropogenic climate change is true could be wrong, if the scientific evidence does not support it.
As far as I know the scientific evidence does support the hypothesis of anthropogenic climate change.
