«Scientists can pose problems that affect the environment based on the available evidence, but their solution is not the responsibility of scientists, it is the whole of society.»
«Los científicos pueden plantear los problemas que afectarán al medio ambiente con base en la evidencia disponible, pero su solución no es responsabilidad de los científicos, es de toda la sociedad.»
