"When it comes to policy issues like climate change and public health, they frequently held the perception that scientists lack a broader understanding of how their recommendations might impact the economy, national security, or simply, the next election."

I mean, yeah OK but also people are dying and entire agriculture communities are at risk from global climate changes that politicians ignored and that are impacting the economy and national security.

@jordanreiter Yes. This is a core aspect of what we argued during the Science Debate years. Science is the economy, national security, public health & more. It’s central to every significant challenge of the 21st century. https://sheril.substack.com/p/science-and-the-candidates
