Science Debate 2008 - Where do the Presidential Candidates Stand?

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Science and technology are at the heart of many of the important issues currently facing the United States: energy, climate change, population growth, disease, hunger, bioethics, and more.  Not only do these issues affect the quality of our lives today, but they will have a major impact on the future of our country and the world.

These issues are too important to ignore, but past presidential elections paid little attention. Science Debate 2008 is a grassroots initiative devoted to focusing more attention on these important areas.

Their effort has paid off and the 2 major party candidates have both provided answers to 14 carefully crafted questions. We recommend visiting www.sciencedebate2008.com to read what Senators McCain and Obama have to say.
