During the Obama administration, he was concerned about vaccines causing autism and it showed when it came to guidance about swine flu vaccines. His administration banned multi-use vials because of his party's insistence that preservatives caused the disorder.
In 1954, the USS Nautilus, the world's first nuclear-powered submarine, was commissioned, and since then America's nuclear vessels have traveled a distance equivalent to 6,000 times around the globe with no serious incidents. Meanwhile, when a combination of disasters, the Tohoku earthquake and a resulting tsunami, caused a shutdown of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in 2011, hysterical academics claimed the western coast of the US was going to be poisoned.
If you want to know how great American air quality is, making EPA efforts to regulate more businesses into the ground all the more baffling, there are maps for that.

MASIPAG is a nework of farmers’ groups, scientist and non-government organizations in the Philippines seeking to improve the farmers’ quality of life through their control over genetic resources, agricultural technology and associated knowledge.

Judge Brian Morris of the United States District Court for the District of Montana has ordered a temporary halt to construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, ruling that the Trump administration did not consider the previous State Department's concerns before giving it the go-ahead two days after entering office.
Dr. Fred vom Saal of the University of Missouri-Columbia has been promoting endocrine "disruption", drastic changes in our hormones that he claims are caused by trace levels of chemicals, for decades. Which means he has been promoting homeopathy for decades. His premise is that there is a magical U-shaped curve for plasticizers like BPA but sometimes his zealotry makes all science look bad, as happened with a recent paper in the favored trade publication of the endocrine disruptor community, which to scientists is far too often the toxicological equivalent of a UFO magazine - Journal of the Endocrine Society.
Every regulatory body in the world has found that the weedkiller glyphosate is only harmful for plants. And huge studies of over 50,000 farmers have found the same.That hasn't stopped trial lawyers and trade groups that aid them or promote competitors to glyphosate, such as Organic Consumers Association or Center for Food Safety, from insisting the studies are flawed because they are "industry funded." They know their customers, and hopefully potentially jurors, aren't aware that all safety studies must be paid for by industry. It would be wrong to let companies create products and then hand them to the government and force taxpayers to pay for a product that corporations will then patent.
University of Bonn environmentalists and economists say Peru's National Forest Conservation Program needs to do more ro protect the rainforest. Peru, on the other hand, is navigating the shackled man problem(1); that developed countries want the rest of the world to limit progress now that rich economies are already doing well. So in 2010 they launched a program to protect the rainforest but Europeans criticize that its effect is still too small. Further, they want Peru to enact three more stringent measures and if governments in Europe agree Peru has to at least consider it because they are held hostage by international governments funding the program.
Everyone in 2019 likes to claim their beliefs are grounded in evidence. The most anti-science groups, from the journalism department at
New York University Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute
to Greenpeace, still claim to have evidence-based decision-making behind their political or financial agendas. It's no different in the "raw" pet food market, but it's harmless posturing to wrap yourself in the veil of science unless you are actually claiming to be scientific when you poison people or their pets.
A recent paper caused a group of academics to shout the alarm about human food additives, even though their study was only in mice and there is no plausible biological hypothesis for how their results can be true.
The Green New Deal is the name given to a half-formed quasi-rational publicity stunt formed by the New Guard in the House of Representatives. Deniers for hire like Organic Consumers Association, which are opposed to agriculture (not to mention their endorsement of anti-vaccine activists and endorsement of opponents of all science) say it will be great. And it will be, for their clients. That poor people will starve or freeze to death if city politicians define "sustainable" isn't really a concern, because the wealthy elites who give to environmental groups will be fine.
I sometimes like to read the arXix preprint physics site. It's where a lot of papers go before they are in journals. It was open access, a way to see what scientists were working on before the results were locked behind a corporate journal paywall, before open access was even a thing.
