Don't know about the scientists you work with Matt, but there's a petition here signed by 19,000 scientists who support the above statement.

Home - Global Warming Petition Project

There's another 500 here. 500 Scientists with Documented Doubts of Man-Made Global Warming Scares: List with Study Citations - by Dennis T. Avery - Global Warming Facts

actually i think you will find that that is 19,000 people some of whom may or may not be scientists - having a phd does not automatically make you a scientist you get phds (which means doctor of philosophy ) in every academic pursuit - also not every scientist, even a nobel prize winner, is an expert on global climatic change.

I certainly havent seen any evidence of scientists who are acknowledged experts in the field such as those on the IPCC changing their minds about global warming

also i think you will find that there are very few profit seekers on this side of the debate - there are however numerous profit seekers with a vested interest in selling oil, cars, flights , etc who are seeking to deny anthropogenically acellerated global warming and who are happy to fund petitions and junk science websites in order to do so
