Society for Conservation Biology Annual Business Meeting. 20 June
1995. University of Maryland. College Park, MD. A special session of the SCB business meeting spent several hours discussing advocacy and ways in which conservation biologists could be more persuasive with the public and policy makers. Two themes emerged from scientists’ statements. Academic scientists stated the need for support and credit from their departments for addressing public audiences in the popular media. Generally scientists said they felt most inclined to speak out knowing that there were others that could follow through on the policy process.
