...there is a 97% consensus that humans are causing and exacerbating climate change...
Ignoring the lack of citation, why is it necessary to resort to band-wagon style marketing?
...the only reason so many scientists agree on climate change being a thing is because all the ones who disagree are being “censored” or something...
I don't think that most of us who are skeptical about climate change believe that scientists are being censored as a matter of scientific conspiracy. It happens that the "fix" for man-made climate change also aligns well with a particular political party. Unfortunately, this results in people who are equally ignorant about the science involved supporting climate change simply because they support the economic policies that would be enacted to "reverse" climate change.
...These people often believe that there is actual scientific evidence disproving climate change. There, of course, is not.
Isn't that the same argument made by academics when religious observers attempt to reason faith against evidence? And isn't the author now asking for us to "prove via the scientific method" something that would be impossible to do? Perhaps that's the point? Who wants to lose $10,000 of their own money?
I know nothing about this guy except what I've read in this one post, but I feel that the author is being intellectually dishonest and with his "prize" and, instead, is attempting to argue his point via propaganda.
