For the 2013 UCS Editorial Cartoon Calendar, twelve talented artists have created editorial cartoons that poke fun at the not-so-humorous challenges to the complex relationship between science and democracy. This year’s cartoons cover a number of topics that are critical to the role of science in federal policymaking, including corporate interference in science, attacks on the scientific regulatory system, barriers to the responsible use of science in policy making, the interaction of communications and social media with science, attacks on scientists, and the defense of science.

The calendar is an excellent gift for everyone who believes that government decisions should be made with full access to the best available science.
