This is from their website. Keep in mind that personal opinions are not peer-reviewed.

Climate Intervention - American Meteorological Society

"Adopted by the AMS Council on 2 February 2022
It is now well established that global average surface temperatures are increasing, and the associated changes in climate are causing ecological and societal disruptions. Further, there is overwhelming evidence that climate change in recent decades is caused by human activities. Greenhouse gas emissions, particularly of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels, have already contributed and will continue to contribute to widespread climate changes, with major negative consequences for most humans and ecosystems.
