The Bush "administration" is preventing the use of scientific data in the formation of public policy. Because it is inconvenient to business. The method of avoiding this is to either suppress.....or misrepresent, those findings. The temporary problem is that this gives industry the freedom to ignore ecological considerations. The bigger problem is that we may never get back to the objective use of scientific findings by government. Prior to this "administration," scientists drew conclusions and reported them to Congress, and Congress respectfully listened. There was no active interference. Today, politicians draw scientific conclusions and present them as if they had been made by the scientific community.
A great deal of damage is currently being done to my country.
