Clinton says “I believe in science” in acceptance speech

Geekwire : In Hillary Clinton’s nomination acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention, she stated that when it comes to climate change she accepts the scientific consensus. That puts her in direct contrast to Donald Trump, the Republican candidate, who has in the past called global warming a hoax and a money-making industry. Science is rarely mentioned in political campaigns—Trump didn’t use the word at all in his own acceptance speech—so Clinton’s “I believe in science” line resulted in a lot of plaudits from scientific commentators on social media. Clinton also shared her belief that shifting to clean energy will help bolster the US economy and drive technology and innovation.
