What I actually did was read the article linked. If it's inaccurate shrug, I don't know, but a googling of "girl scout badge entomology" doesn't show much. If there are and they're meaningful, super, I'm pleased and 'part of the problem' is revoked. As far as "science to dig out of cosmetics", that's rather a non-sense question. Yes, there is science, good, hard science. It's biology and it's chemistry, it's not "beauty". Yeah, I get it, the 'idea' is we connect things they're interested in to science. Well, IMHO, the problem isn't getting the girls (or boys) who are into style and make-up to 'dig' science, the problem is encouraging and networking the girls who do dig science and math. (this is already done much better for boys, again IMO).
