Comments on: Buying Nano This Holiday http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/buying-nano-this-holiday.html Science Blog from Freelance Science Writer David Bradley Thu, 05 Nov 2009 18:03:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Andrew Sun http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/buying-nano-this-holiday.html/comment-page-1#comment-50160 Andrew Sun Mon, 11 Dec 2006 17:10:11 +0000 http://www.sciencebase.com/science-blog/buying-nano-this-holiday.html#comment-50160 From the Telegraph article I knew that Prince Charles was scared by some predictions of the environmentalists. I have contacted and visited some NGOs such as Greenpeace (China) not long ago. I found that, although apparently professional, they actually lack a board of scientists for consultancy of the scientific validity of their movements. They start their champaign by some hearsay, by which they are (or appear to be) so convinced that the public are then convinced effectively, without concerning the basis of the whole thing. Although the inevitable balancing powers or voices in a society, these NGOs are limited to more positive activities if they are not scientifically well-based.
