Support a presidential debate on science
December 11, 2007
There is a petition for a presidential debate on science (brought to you by the good folks at ScienceBlogs). Given that so many pressing issues (stem cell research, climate change, public health, evolution) revolve around scientific matter, it’s pretty important to know how well the candidates understand the process and how they view new findings.
Because we all know what can happen when a president thinks he can overwrite science.
UPDATE: There’s an Op-Ed in the Los Angeles Times calling for the debate. Good for them!
