[open-science] War on science?

[Heather Morrison]

Possibly of interest - science librarian John Dupuis has begun the process of documenting attacks on science under the Trump administration:

Dupuis' work on chronicling the Canadian war on science under our former government was extremely valuable to everyone fighting for things like scientists' right to speak or evidence-based policy.

Are list members aware of other examples of these kinds of political threats to science, resources to track problems or fight for science? Is it only the US one should worry about or could this happen elsewhere?

best,

Heather Morrison
