Would you like to see a green-science version of Tomorrows World, to showcase the ethical/responsible side...?

Question

of science....and to celebrate and make famous scientists, who can inspire young kids, not just to invent and inovate, but to make a positive contribution towards a completely sustainable civilization [ecologically speaking].

if science wants to redeem its public image, hasnt it got to demonstrate not just technical mastery, but ethical integrity?

Answer 1

A good idea.

but the advertisers won't like it; even the BBC magazines mostly carry adverts for large expensive cars.

Why else do they keep trolling out Top Gear, the least green/ethically responsible programme ever?

You are correct about the public image of science. I think every story/item should be required to report the environmental/ethical side, evry story has one, eg beckams being the most polluting people for 2nd year running. It can be done in a fun entertaining way, but unfortunatly the standard of journalism seems to be reduced to repeating offical press releases, and journalists don't like to think about inconvenient facts, and few seem to have any grasp of basic science.  

The only science that gets covered regularly are weather, medicine and cute/dangerous animals.

Answer 2

great idea!

Answer 3

I`m starting to think both Lawyers and Scientist should be throw-en into the sewer pipes

Answer 4

Cracking idea, but I seem to recall Tomorrow's World being the kiss of death to any new cool inventions.
