Nature's Experts

Science, Politics, and the Environment

Beschreibung

Some critics describe science not as the solution to environmental problems, but as their source. Science itself is often a basis of controversy, as debates over global warming and environmental health risks show. This book explores the contributions and challenges presented when scientific authority enters the realm of environmental affairs.
