Of the climatologists who have an opinion, 98% believe in AGW and 2% don't. The fact that some climatologists haven't yet formed their opinion is due to the fact that different people have different levels of evidence they need in order to form an opinion. Moreover, some people will weigh certain evidence more heavily than others will.
Of the ones who don't believe there is enough evidence to form an opinion, they would like to see more evidence before they decide.
It's not a simple question like 'is there such a thing as gravity?' where everyone can agree and there's no need to do more research. It's complicated, and getting to the bottom of it requires a lot of work.
