> However, it is clear that despite scientific success in advancing understanding about various aspects of global change, notably climate change, scientists have been spectacularly unsuccessful at bridging the science-policy interface. For climate change, the science-society contract is irrevocably broken.
Climate scientists broke the contract when they chose to cross the bridge from science to activism. This gives zero credibility.
