PART III: INTERNET RESOURCES
RealClimate
http://www.realclimate.org/
“ RealClimate is a commentary site on climate science
by working climate scientists for the interested
public and journalists. We aim to provide a quick
response to developing stories and provide the
context sometimes missing in mainstream commentary. The discussion
here is restricted to scientific topics and will
not get involved in any political or economic implications
of the science.“
Prometheus
The Science Policy Weblog
http://sciencepolicy.colorado.edu/prometheus/
“Prometheus is a project of the
University of Colorado Center for Science
and Technology Policy Research. Prometheus
is designed to create an informal outlet
for news, information, and opinion on science
policy. We hope that Prometheus can foster
broad participation and discussion.
The Post Normal Times: Perspectives on
Environmental Science and Policy Decisions
http://www.postnormaltimes.net/blog/html
about.html
“The Post-Normal Times is dedicated
to improving the quality of public participation
in science-based policy decisions related
to the conundrums presented by problems
of environmentally sustainable development,
by providing multiple and constructive
perspectives on complex and controversial
science and policy issues. A central focus
will be on justifications provided for
controversial high-stakes decisions that
pertain to complex problems such as climate
change, in which the disadvantages of making
trade-offs fall disproportionately on those
excluded from the decision-making process.
But we will also cover post-normal aspects
of culture and politics that are the context
of science. We particularly seek out the
kinds of information often missed in formal
reports and normal news sources, for failure
to fit into standard categories and established
story lines. “
