I’m sure you didn’t mean to phrase it that way but the way you’ve put it is a logical fallacy - an appeal to popularity. Everyone may believe something, but everyone may be wrong.
The proof of catastrophic anthropogenic climate change is not in the strength of belief in it but in the mountain of observable evidence that has caused 97% of scientists to affirm that it exists, is a problem, and must be remedied urgently.
