Union of Concerned Scientists

The UCOS is made up of around 200,000 members including not only scientists but economists and engineers. Founded 42 years ago by MIT students and faculty, they are an agency of people who have clearly not sold their intellects to the highest military/​industrial bidders. Global warming and the dangers of nuclear power are the central issues of their organization. With increasingly turbulent weather, environmental destruction, and the recent nuclear disaster in Japan being unavoidably fresh in our minds, the UOCS deserves mention and succor.
Besides, they’ve made enemies in Brent Bozell, John Stossel, NewsMax, and the late Jerry Falwell for their «left-​wing, pro-​regulation, anti-​business, global warming hocus-​pocus «stances and their «jihad against climate skeptics.»
There isn’t much more that needs to be said now is there?
