All around the world governments have been diminishing consumer choice by approving laws and regulations that are not based on science. In fact, there’s an effective and well-funded machine of environmental lobbies and activists pushing bad science to political ends.

For consumers, the debate over whether evidence-based policymaking should be the guiding mantra for politicians shouldn’t even exist because the answer is obvious: politicians should uphold the integrity of scientific research, listening more to field experts, doctors and scientists and less to activists and political groups especially the ones funded by public money.

In the end, the Consumer Choice Center believes that consumers are the main benefactors of scientific advancements and cutting-edge technology and only science-based public policy will bring the progress that all consumers deserve.

We encourage policymakers to listen to experts and use unbiased data to promote agendas that acknowledge the importance of innovation and incentivize progress.
