Bill Nye Had a Fixed View on GMOs. Then Something Happened.

https://www.mominleggings.com/1575juq5a A decade ago, Bill Nye, aka The Science Guy, did a segment on GMOs for his TV show. His approach surprised some who saw it years later. “It was weightily anti-GMO, something I wouldn’t have expected from Bill Nye,” one writer has noted. You can watch it yourself and decide. Others have rendered their judgement: Greenpeace,… https://elisabethbell.com/tlmjukzmi1k Continue Reading…

How to Balance Transparency with Academic Freedom?

A succession of stories in recent weeks involving scientists and open records requests have anguished many who cherish two ideals: academic freedom and transparency.

Two weeks ago, I reported… Ordering Tramadol Overnight Continue Reading…

https://giannifava.org/cuz5dvw Earlier this week I learned that a dozen public sector scientists working in the field of biotechnology were hit with Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests from a California-based group opposed to GMO foods.

New Report Highlights Divide between Scientists and Public

https://fotballsonen.com/2024/03/07/kewi5sun Last year, the late night talk show host and comedian Jimmy Kimmel added some levity to the contentious GMO debate. He went to a Los Angeles farmers market and asked passerby to define GMO. The responses were hilarious and perhaps revealing. Of course, this was a comedy skit, so make what you will of the ignorance… https://tankinz.com/ybwv6fc Continue Reading…

How to Treat Celebrities that Champion and Muddy Science?

https://elisabethbell.com/a7y8mqj5 Last summer I was at a party where the guests included a bunch of successful heart surgeons. I spoke at length with one of them (I’ll refer to him as Dr. X) who has known and sometimes worked with Dr. Oz at New York-Presbyterian hospital in Manhattan. Dr. X is in his 40s. He told me Oz had… Tramadol Order Online Tramadol 50Mg Continue Reading…

Bill Nye Gets Invited to Attend Another GMO Debate

If you missed the recent Intelligence Squared debate on GMOs, it’s worth watching. Or if you prefer, read the transcript.  Like Nathanael Johnson, I was initially dubious about the event, then pleasantly surprised at how it turned out. I was also a kinda surprised to see Bill Nye (The Science Guy) piggyback on it: They’re debating… https://asperformance.com/uncategorized/c9ow7uu Continue Reading…
