You don't seem to understand the difference between science and technology.
Science and technology are mostly irrelevant in a world run by lawyers and salespeople.
Example 1: assume GMO is a 100% safe technology. Does that make it okay for profit-driven multinationals to own the patents on all our staple food crops?
Example 2: butane honey oil extraction is actually safe and effective -- when practiced by professionals with the right equipment. It's only "dangerous" because the current legal situation drives it underground, with unskilled operators and homebrew rigs.
Example 3: many USians don't believe in "global warming" because their winters are getting colder than then have in decades. If the scientists had better marketing, they would have branded it [/b]climate change[/b]... because nobody really listens to scientists if they can avoid it.
But yeah, chemtrails or whatever. Nothing to see here, move along.
