Actual % is 32% of scientists. Cook discarded 66%. Compare "no position" to "expressed a position". "[In the] Abstract: We analyze the evolution of the scientific consensus on anthropogenic global warming (AGW) in the peer-reviewed scientific literature, examining 11 944 climate abstracts from 1991–2011 matching the topics ‘global climate change’ or ‘global warming’. We find that 66.4% of abstracts expressed no position on AGW, 32.6% endorsed AGW" "[In the] Results: ...Among abstracts that expressed a position on AGW, 97.1% endorsed the scientific consensus."
