I thought it was this survey that had a chart that I remember clearly, which showed the attitudes of the respondents about climate sensitivity.

We should not care about climate sensitivity, that is based on climate models that have always been wrong.

CO2 growth rates (CEI, p. 11): arguments about what growth rates for CO2 emissions that some models use are besides the point of what the science says about the climate sensitivity of the earth system (emissions growth rates are if anything an economic question).
