Yes, I did. And most of the organizations explicitly concur with the IPCC statement "An increasing body of observations gives a collective picture of a warming world and other changes in the climate system... There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities." If you disagree, point out which ones you think are at odds.

New and stronger evidence supporting human involvement in global warming I can agree with, but it is irresponsible (and agenda driven) to blame humanity as the major factor attributed to climate change.

No. It's science-driven. Those not acknowledging this could be said to have their own agenda.
