Description
Examines the current state of science in the political sphere, looking at how strategies for alleviating global warming are resisted by powerful interests and faith-based objections to the teaching of evolution erupt from the public. The politicization of science is nothing new, of course. Ever since Galileo's clash with the Roman Catholic Church, advances in scientific knowledge have had a strained relationship with powerful interests.
