Dear List,
Following a rather sad discussion about the State of the UK sector, I thought I would attempt to inspire some positive change...
"...none of us can sit quietly and allow the language of science to be misinterpreted in ways that misrepresent the facts. Today we must not only decide what we stand for, but what we will not stand for. We cannot let science that underlies the progress we have made to deliver on this country’s core values of clean air, water and land be sidelined by politics. Our families’ health and our children’s future are at stake. "
From: former US EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy to remind us about our role as scientists and clinicians in shaping the future and our children's future.
Best wishes, David (Down Under)
