Not New, but Topical:
The George C. Marshall Institute seeks to improve the understanding of scientific and technical issues that influence national security, energy and environmental policy.
Public policy matters are shaped by advances in science and technology. For that reason, unbiased and scientifically accurate assessments of the meaning of these advances for policy are critical. Where science is misused and distorted to promote special interests, we work to:
-
Communicate scientific information clearly,
-
Identify key linkages between science and policy issues, and
-
Provide balanced and accurate assessments on specific science-based policy issues.
