“Science, nominally the most prestigious scientific journal in the world, is at it again. In November, they published an editorial by Agustin Fuentes titled ‘Scientists as political advocates’.”
What Fuentes really means is science should damned because it was essential to creating the Industrial Revolution-the thing that creates greenhouse gases. What’s so odd, is that Fuentes and the environmental movement he supports, are no fans of science. They know where this technology comes from. They hate and envy the moral pleasure and standing the scientists received by working to bloom human flourishing. Fuentes wants the scientists who are morally estranged from using science for human profit to damn the scientists who aren’t. And he would destroy the world to do it.
