I disagree, because this is very much a politicization of a scientific finding. The issue is not whether or not the science is right, but what should be done about the findings. The fact that the "debate" is framed as being between so called climate "deniers" and scientists goes to show how the media skews the actual political debate. The debate is not between climate deniers and scientists, it's between economists and regulators. @tehstone linked this article in his comment above. While this article is also biased, it does give insight as to what people are really talking about in the "debate".

The fact of the matter is that the UN is the primary force behind pushing climate change regulations, and as a political entity, one must have caution when looking at the motivations behind the reports they choose to publish. To keep from bias, one must keep an agenda in mind; this goes for any political organization and any funding source for any science.
