Did you miss Wednesday's FST discussion @royalsociety.org on the case for responsible science activism? It certainly sparked a lively debate and food for thought for many. 🌍 ⏳

He doubles down on the importance of science communication, and more scientists in government, particularly as politicians. #FSTEvents

Our final speaker provides a counterargument. Professor Sir Mark Walport accepts the need for decarbonisation 'completely' but explores potential gaps in understanding of policy making and the need to balance present and future generations. #FSTEvents

Prof Jeff Waage talks about his experience moving from traditional science-for-policy routes to activism to enable urgent policy change and public actions. e.g., Large-scale actions in 2019 encouraging large NGOs to 'come off the fence' on climate and biodiversity loss campaigning. #FSTEvents

Dr Abi Perrin takes to the stage as our second panelist for this evening's discussion on a case for responsible science activism. What could science activism look like? She explores her involvement with @scientistsforxr.earth and its impact. #FSTEvents

Should scientists lobby for change, and how might this look? Our first panelist is Dr Charlie Gardner @royalsociety.org, who explores the distrust in science, industry lobbying, and misinformation that counters the scientific evidence on #biodiversityloss and #climatechange. #FSTEvents

April's discussion event focuses on space policy and supporting the UK space industry. Join us on Wed 29th April @royalsociety.org or online.
