“At the worst possible time, a gulf of misunderstanding widens between the nation's scientists and ordinary Americans”

This article in the Oregonian by the Editorial Board highlights the need for a PR expert to get involved to improve the communication between science and citizens. For me this also highlights why I struggle so much with trying to figure out why system dynamics doesn’t have broad acceptance.
