- Notes:
- Examines the relationships between environmentalists and scientists on four dimensions: (a) the degree to which scientific research has become more applied; (b) the relative success or failure of efforts to integrate and coordinate research projects and programs; © the amount of synthesis of scientific information for policy purposes that has taken place; and (d) the level of professionalizing that has occurred in environmental science, economics, policy and management. Results indicate that environmentalism has had little impact on science.
