Der Klimawechsel ist zu wichtig, um ihn der Wissenschaft zu überlassen?

Gelesen in: http://environment.guardian.co.uk/climatechange/story/0,,2032821,00.html:

Self-evidently dangerous climate change will not emerge from a normal scientific process of truth seeking, although science will gain some insights into the question if it recognises the socially contingent dimensions of a post-normal science. But to proffer such insights, scientists - and politicians - must trade (normal) truth for influence. If scientists want to remain listened to, to bear influence on policy, they must recognise the social limits of their truth seeking and reveal fully the values and beliefs they bring to their scientific activity.
Climate change is too important to be left to scientists - least of all the normal ones.

Soziales Engineering aufgrund von Glaubensbekenntnisse?
