The primary reason for many people to reject climate change, vaccination or evolution is not science, but ideology, Dr. Eugenie Carol Scott, a renowned anthropologist, told an audience at Trinity University yesterday.
Scott, a physical anthropologist and chair of the Advisory Council for the National Center for Science Education, presented a lecture titled “Why Do People Reject Good Science,” hosted by Trinity University in honor of the 2016 Darwin Day, the 207th anniversary of Charles Darwin’s birthday.
