Physics Today : In the third quarter of 2007, Physics Today asked all the presidential candidates a series of questions related to science policy. Despite repeated quests by the online Physics Today staff, all the candidates declined to comment. In response Physics Today has collected material from the candidates web site, and quotes from the candidates public speeches on six related science policy issues: science education , teaching evolution , nuclear weapons , science investment , energy policy and climate change . This new campaign 2008 site will track the candidates views on science policy throughout 2008. Presidential candidates: Where do you stand on energy policy? More than two decades of proposals have not resulted in a comprehensive U.S. energy policy. what incentives or controls would you advocate to improve energy efficiency and conservation? Looking 10 years into the future, what should the U.S. energy mix be, and what role should nuclear energy play?See the answers at http://blogs.physicstoday.org/politics08/energy.html
