The scientific and ethical dimensions of striving for perfection
The general public’s political views are strongly linked to their attitudes on climate and energy issues. But politics is a less important factor on biomedical, food safety, space issues.

Those more likely to say parents should be able to decide whether to vaccinate their children include younger adults, Republicans and independents.
