About the cover: The “Quiet” Science Symposium held by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) on February 26 exposed many things for sure. Ironically, it appears that “truth in science” has little meaning to the media because the environmentalists’ claim that the sky is falling and the planet will soon be uninhabitable is all but settled much like CARB’s claim that diesel emission is responsible for tens of thousands of premature deaths! Due to industry and academic pressures, which have repeatedly exposed many improprieties at CARB, its Chair Mary Nichols and Board were forced into hosting a symposium to investigate whether or not diesel emissions fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure is actually having any health effects on us here in California. The results of the symposium were clear to most: the science is NOT settled, not even close. If the evidence is so overwhelming, why is there any need to compromise the scientific process as badly as CARB has been allowed to do? To watch a tape of the symposium, go to the CDTO.org website or to www.cal-span.org/cgi-bin/archive.php?owner=CARB&date=2010-02-26.”
