Science is important to government and because science is factual and you can't deny it. Political decisions should involve facts and science instead of always being based on opinion.

Science is important for making political decisions, because making decisions without being informed is not good. People need to make sure they know what they are voting for before they vote or they will end up with laws that they don't want.

Because science can act as information to fall back on for both the people and the government if the people want something to change then they need data to support their reason for change.

Science contributes to decisions and laws written into office, without data there is no change. But realistically the government ignores it anyways. Leave a Reply. |
