In the book, I talk about my interest in these sorts of questions, and how the "Hockey Stick" was really almost a distraction from the more fundamental science questions that drove our research on paleoclimate in the first place, more than a decade ago.
In the following study, we investigate the prospects for CTA to study several science questions that can profoundly influence our current knowledge of fundamental physics.
Questions of how we can acquire scientific knowledge, what status this knowledge has, and what assumptions are shaping the approaches taken, are classical epistemology and philosophy of science questions that I hold will prove important in an RRI perspective.
They should also be comfortable debating the top American science questions that affect all voters' lives".
Like the Department of Energy program previously discussed, Scialog will support young researchers to tackle complex science questions that address the broad context of global climate change.
Eight key policy-relevant science questions that integrated across various parts of these science areas formed the basis of the meeting, and a ninth question addressed the policy implications of the findings (see Appendix).
Finally, we returned to the science, and I addressed a theme that's come up on this blog, and that I think contributes substantially to making the human response to climate change (or global warming) a particularly vexing problem — the reality that while the basics of the science are clear, the science on questions that matter most to society is not.

Over dinner and after a few glasses of wine, he decided to use science to tackle a question that has stumped poets for centuries.
How will we do our experiments?" "Why is always a question that moves science forward," Dr. Brenner said.
