| The correct response is "is" not "are". "Evidence" is the noun not "tons". |

| Well, it still sounds correct to use are, because "tons" seems like the noun. Remove "of evidence" from the sentence and you see why it seems right to use "are". Could it be that the noun in this sentence is "tons of evidence", which would therefore make it plural and make "are" the correct word? |

| Are is teh correct answer because the noun is in plural "tons" |
