look at you. >> in central park the other day. >> you look handsome, happy father's day to you. >> happy father's day. >> we are told that science creates monsters. leading the fight against gmos which brings up this question. >> how stupid do you think we are? >> very. so is your ex. >> the antifreeze needs to be removed immediately. >> science is true whether you believe it. >> but what is true? i am told men and women are exactly equal. >> i'm a man. well nobody's perfect. >> i am told i can eat more chocolate. our let's lose some weight with

the chocolate. >> and now wheat. >> all organic and gluten free. >> the war over science is our show tonight. . john: getting science right matters. sometimes our lives are t >> sometimes are our lives are on line and that is why debate over vaccines and global warming and stem cells are important. left said the right ignores good science and deny global warming and some deny evolution and pass laws that ban stem cell research that could save lives. the right said the left ignores science and t who obsess about overpopulation and lead campaigns against vaccines, plastics and artificial sweetners. i can go on. the left's ignorance has a bigger effect on our lives if religious conservatives reject

evolution. if they ban government funding of stem cell research, private investors will continue. when the leftist push the dubious science they get politicians to pass the laws based on it that subject all of us to government force and restrict our choices. matt has followed the debate over politics and science from his position as editor of "reason," magazine. do i characterize this correctly? >> the right is capable too of passing laws that affect us negatively based on their preferences at any given time. what is important is to separate what a politician said about science and what a politician says about policy which is the job we elect the politicians to do. we have a sense here, a lot of people like to argue about science rather than argue about policy. it is easier to say he is a cave man a bad guy we don't have to listen than to defend

figuring out global warming and climate change. >> people on the right are more skeptical about global warming the big shut day and a popular video portrays republicans as geezers who deny science. >> do you suffer great climate change denial disorder? it is rapidly spreading that officials say if left untreated could destroy the entire planet. >> nothing more rereactioning than being in the water. >> this has been viewed a million times and they are popular and fits the image of republicans as old guy whose deny modern science. >> sure. in some cases that is true. at the same time, that doesn't mean the people who believe in the proper science of this have the best policy.

this is especially true when it comes to issues that involve environmentalism in some way. >> i don't mind when they say i am not a scientist but i want to see convincing evidence before we spend more of your money and turn our lives upside down for global warming. >> to say i am not a scientist is important reminder. i wish that andrew cuomo said i am not a scientist which could explain why banned fracking in my state where there is incredible poverty in upstate new york and no one has shown that fracking does anything wad to ground water. the studies have said that this is okay. we have not seen any evidence for that. >> i would not say they have not shown anything because there are a few cases where it has caused a problem. but all energy is dirty. >> when you dig 30,000 wells there will an few problems. environmentalists shift beliefs on science including fracking when the practice or science starts to become popular. it will happen with solar if it

is popular people will talk about desert wildlife we are ruining in the process. and john podesto will run hillary clinton campaign and said natural gas is the way to go. >> hillary clinton actually, is not as bad on this issue as andrew cuomo and other democrats. something the left is antiscience about is producing electricity by splitting atoms. >> nuclear power remains dirty dangerous, and expensive form of energy. >> the worst disasters have happened in nuclear plants, including cher mobile -- chernobyl. >> three mile island hurt no one, there was a small release of radioactivity and people think thousands died at chernobyl. the real total is 60.

>> a lot of this is cultural memory and new technologies that makes nuclear cleaner but every bit energy thing has tradeoffs and the tradeoffs are always going to be messy. >> a lot people on the left are scared of gmos modified organisms and some libertarians, too. >> food company scientists lay around with genes and plants to create better tasting food or foods that stay fresh longer or plants that resist insects. the last says don't fool with mother nature. this week, hollywood said that in the new movie with the biggest global opening of any movie ever. >> we have our first genetically modified hybrid. >> you made a new dinosaur? probably not a good idea. we have had the fears since

frankenstein and even the european commission when they looked into this said that this has no adverse effects on mankind. period. what it does, while not hurting you in anyway it allows you to use left past sighs which are supposed to be bad. they are bad. you do not want a lot of them. you use less fertilizer and make more wheat and corn on this patch of stuff so you can use the rest of your land for forests and happy things like that. the environmental tradeoff is crystal clear. people who are opposing gmos at the level of government are leading preventable deaths. >> some people are sick because other people feel vaccines. curely it is -- curiously it is often wealthy liberals such as in home wood, and the hollywood stars convinced a lot of people there are bad things in

vaccines. >> like the frickin' mercury the aluminum, the antifreeze need to be removed immediately. >> how stupid do you think we are? >> this dates to a 1988 study that was withdrawn. everyone who has studied this subsequent to this link, vaccines to autism and because of that we see a lot bad policy. >> i am struck that it is belief by anecdote. i vaccinated my kid and then autism showed up. >> i had a daughter recently, four months old and you have to get the vaccine for hepatitis. i don't think she is a drug user with unprotected sex. what can you inject into your child so i understand the questions but it is regrettable when it is based on junk science which it is too often. >> thank you matt welch from

"rson," magazine and now one issue in the news gender equalities saying women are discriminated against. >> the average woman who works full time in america earns less than a man. >> it is unconscionable that women earn 78 cents on the dollar. >> isn't it amazing that we are still debating whether women deserve equal pay for equal work? >> and now the women's policy for research agrees. >> women work and they make less particularly they make less when they have college degrees. >> there is not a difference in how hard they work or how much time off they take or what they study in college? there is no reason, just sexism? >> they are paid differently when they study the same and the wage gap is biggest for those who work the longest hours women women who work more than 50 hours the wage gap is

larger. >> if women are so underpaid but they are just as skilled for the exact job why don't you open a business and become a billionaire because you hire only women and you have so much more room to underprice were else you would clean up. why don't people do that? >> because economics is not as rationale as you think and they can get women cheaper. >> it is because women make different choices. maybe you have healthier attitudes about taking time off. when this was researched the labor department said that the difference is individual choices made by men and women. >> we do different jobs, sometimes, women are much more likely to be nurses and men are more likely to be engineers. why do we pay nurses less than engineers? a lot of it is bias and prejudice. our there are not bake -- basic

differences define men and women and boys and girls? don't boys prefer to pay sports and isn't that biological? >> have you looked at the world cup in soccer for women? >> great. >> they are inaccuratebly good add blending into their environment and when they are that little they want to copy what is going on, not their parents, necessarily but the incredibly good antenna for figuring out. >> it is the social influence of society. >> when they embryo up just because you play with a barbie does not mean you are less good at math or that you are --. >> nobody is saying that. >> you were saying that, no? you were saying they play with barbies and that means we go into fields where --. >> i am saying there is is a

biological difference. >> even baby monkeys play with trucks. >> when they are babies. it does not help you predict whether they are going to be good at science or at social studies. >> college majors, the ones that bring high pay on average poem -- people engineers market, aerial engineers are dominated by males. >> math is 40 percent women now. >> that means it is circuit percent men and they get paid more. >> some of it is about culture change keeping women out. >> sexism and government should try to take steps to fix it. >> there are laws. there should be but laws have to let people be treated equally but employers need to realize those things are not happening by themself.

you need extra steps. >> if what you say is true someone would hire only women and get rip. i keep waiting for it to happen. it doesn't happen. >> you need a little pushing. >> thank you. follow me on twitter to condition this argument or you can "like," my facebook page. >> do you know that eating chocolate is good for you? >> get your chocolate out and let's lose some weight. listen up team i brought in some protein to help rearrange the fridge and get us energized! i'm new ensure active high protein. i help you recharge

>> your diet works better faster if you combine it with dark chocolate. get out your chocolate and let's lose some weight. >> who knew, i can eat after all these years i can eat chocolate to lose weight. it must be true. there was a study but of course, it is not true. eating chocolate does not help you lose 10 percent more weight. it is high in fat and calories. why would the news media write headlines like that? because a science writer who works with students at harvard and he suckered them into it. >> how did you sell chocolate as a weight loss? >> the way that all junk science, diet fads is done. i did a study a bad one it was a real study. >> it was we used only 15 people. >> you gave some chocolate and look at differences overtime

and, well, here is something that is probable special but some lost weight. >> if you repeated the experiment you would get something totally different. >> no one would publish this? >> well...actually, this is a growing industry of fake science journals that look completely legitimate with real titles and websites but there is no peer review so that means you are publishing your stuff in a vanity press. >> which you does and the media picked it up. >> i write a beautiful press release. >> what makes that? >> only a journalist knows we have to look through our e-mail inbox each day and i have to admit, we are lazy. if a good press release cops across our way, with a sexy hook upfront, something that in our case was east certificate come asking we have good news on

chock last, and it had great quotes from scientists and punchy kicker. >> and we want to believe we can eat chocolate and lose weight. >> it is a story everyone wants to hear. >> here is another scare story. do you eat potato chips? better not they are full of chemicals that cause cancer. >> if you eating these as we showed you are getting the same chemical found in these? this can cause cancer. >> these do have that chemical in it but what they detected in the chips was vanishingly vanishing amounts of it. >> here is the tv program on cbs and though are just throwing this stuff out. >> this has been translated badly for the public. while it is technically true that it is a substance that has been linked to cancer that also a million stub

stances. >> there is much or more of to chemical for anything cooked at high temperature including corn flakes or coffee, or prune juice. >> it got more attention than it deserves. >> why do they do this? >> cancer is killing and it is killing people we love. it is something you should care about but people lose sight of the risk. if you care that much, never cross the street. >> you do not blame the scientists? >> they are looking for truth and journalists also are looking for the truth but it is so out of whack over what you should eat. we blow up the minor results and the fishy core legislation studies into headlines what you should or shouldn't east and that usually is immature. >> go ahead eat chips but in moderation. thank you john. how bad science and popeye

i have moderate to severe crohn's disease. it's tough, but i've managed. but managing my symptoms was all i was doing. so when i finally told my doctor, he said humira is for adults like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohn's disease. and that in clinical studies the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. and many achieved remission. humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. before treatment, get tested for tb. tell your doctor if you've been to areas where certain fungal infections are common

and if you've had tb hepatitis b, are prone to infections or have flu-like symptoms or sores. don't start humira if you have an infection. if you're still just managing your symptoms, ask your gastroenterologist about humira. with humira, remission is possible. john: the m t >> the most hotly debated science issue is global warming. three science superstars standout among those that make the case to act now punish cool plants by electric car and who are the three superstars? ♪ bill nye the science guy ♪ >> bill nye is one hosting a t series that taught kids about science and he is willing to come on programs like mine and debate so-called denier.

it is on occasion they make good decisions. portland oregon, still said, no no fluoride. >> many places say no in direct response to political positioning. the science behind it, however is absolute. this science has been proven over and over again to have massive health care benefits. otherwise, cdc would not announce that water fluoride is one of the top ten greatest achiefments in health care. >> it was written by on people, six years out of date when the health studies and there is evidence that the floor ride reduces tooth decase was pathetic. you have in your hand there the graphs that show how ludicrous the cdc claim was. >> let's talk about that. let's show this graph and doctor, comment on this. it shows how tooth decay trends

dropped sharply in all the countries but it is dropping in countries that use fluoride and those that don't. this is the first time i have seen this graph. i think it is outstanding and i am see that paul has brought this to our attention. >> in europe, most places do not have central water systems they have arrest kayic water systems and substitute other vehicles to achieve that goal. >> such as salt. >> in certain candy and make in some countries. most importantly in these countries in european they have a very advanced preventive dental health program for chip. >> but you throw in the availability of topical increase ride the toothpaste, and that is universally available. when you have the cdc admitting that floor ride works topically it make sense to brush it on your teeth and spit it out protecting the other tissues and you are not forcing it on people that don't want it.

and agriculture economist jason tries to keep track of the games, and he keeps finding things like vegetarian and vegan diets. >> i don't care what you give up eating, you and i are not going to look like beyoncé. so, unfortunately, the trouble with diets like that is we can probably go on them and lose a little bit of weight, but they're really hard to stick to. so what you see often is people will go on them, lose some weight, and then gain it all back really quickly . john: a lot of vegetarians stay on their diets and have all kinds of arguments for the vegan diet, which is vegetarian bill also no animal products, no eggs, no dairy no honey even, because it comes from bees. >> that's right. and the trouble is when you look at science is that -- it's hard to separate out whether people that are eating vegetarian diets are just healthier in and of themselves or the diet

is causing that . john: so they are healthier. >> there is evidence that yes, some vegetable trainers healthier, but they also often to be female, drink and smoke less . john: they tend to be -- if they're food obsessed enough to be vegetarians they're the kind of people who obsess about good health. >> they are. and actually the research does show that most people that become vegetarians often revert back to eating meat at some point . john: for those who don't want to go completely vegetarian, the humane society says at least try meatless monday. >> health support the idea of kicking off each week, sandwiches and fish sticks, with my for one oprah is onboard. . john: if oprah's on board it must be true. >> everything oprah says is true of course. we know that. there's nothing wrong with going meatless monday, you might be a little bit healthier and create an environmental benefit by cutting back on your meat, but

we like to eat meat, mother nature has allowed us with the meat it brings us a healthy pack of vitamins that we naturallily enjoy. so we might be welling to exchange a little bit of health or consequences to get something that we like, and indeed if you look it had meat is expensive than vegetarian diets and we are often willing to pay that because it taste great . john: and gluten free is the big fad now. bill o'reilly says he feels great. >> i think the trouble here is we picked a particular agreement and it's been in wheat since the beginning for over 10,000 years and we have vilified that. so when you look at what science we have available for it gives us -- we don't have much scientific evidence that would suggest going off glute inis going to improve your health . john: you would think by now we would with all these people talking about it. >> you will think but if you go into a grocery store there's gluten free everywhere, and it will cater

to our every if we're willing to do it . john: finally more people pay more for organic food. >> there's nothing wrong with organic, but there's a lot of things wrong with the arguments. a very common myth is somehow organic does not use pesticides, and that's just false. organic farmers can use natural pesticides, and a lot of that like copper and sulfur, is just as toxic we humans have made. so a lot of people that believe about organic are not necessarily true. . john: there's no evidence that it's healthier. >> that's exactly right. so there have been several large-scale studies that have compared new transitional content of organic and nonorganic, and there's essentially no difference and the trouble is, though, people believe there is, they believe if they bought organic they lose wait.

. john: when i started reporting, i thought of science as passionate observers, in other words in laboratories who just care about the truth. they conduct research, and report the results and science journals which provide an extra layer of fact checking. they submit the research to other scientists, peer review it's called. and only if those scientific peers are convinced the research is accurate will the study be published. the journals reject most studies submitted, so i figured what they do publish must be true.

wrong. despite the so-called requiringous peer review, my scientist brother tom explained to me that half of what gets published turns out a few years later to be wrong. science is not as precise as i thought. sometimes the peer reviewer doesn't review very carefully and they rarely look at the original data. or they have a bias or the journal editors are just as excited about something new that fits their bias. that's probably what happened recently when that study came out showing that many opponents of gay marriage changed their minds after just talking to a gay person for 15 minutes. turns out that the researcher probably faked the study. he now says the original data has been deleted. i assume the general editors weren't that eager to double-check because the research fit their own views. scientists are just as fallible as everybody else.

and ambitious too. my brother says medical researchers will run over their grandmothers to get a appropriately ocean. still scientific conconsistencies matters saying smoking can cause heart disease, then i believe it. if a majority of climate experts say greenhouse gases are killing people and there's something we can do to fix it, something practical then i'll stop being a skeptic. until then, i'll keep asking questions. heck when i was a kid i suffered from bad science reporting, i was forced to eat spinach. my mother told me she knew it was healthy because experts said so. actually the experts said that spinach was unique in getting enough iron. and iron was a big deal back then because we didn't have iron fortified bread.

popeye's supported it for years. ♪ . john: however, it turns out that it's no better than pizza, dried peaches the extra iron claims spread off a researcher accidentally moved the decimal place one space. the media on that, and i had to eat spinach. now, moving the decimal point was an honest mistake. but errors are seldom that simple. if it would happen today i suspect the spinach lobby. businesses often twist science to get money or political activist, they do it to fit their agenda. or bureaucrats they'll do it to protect their turf or pretend they weren't wrong before. and the media, you would think we'd check we're supposed to

be skeptics, but when it comes to scares, we're really skeptical. after all the people who bring us the scares are alarmed and we're apolice department eager to rush that news to you. also we know the scarier the story, the more likely our bosses will give us more airtime. fear self, and it makes us feel important. we're saving the people from some very scary things. and that brings me back to today's obsession with global warming. >> we're going to see more floods more droughts, more wildfires . john: in 2018, abc news predicted our future. >> how much warmer is is it going to get? we don't know where the end is. >> temperatures are at a dangerous level. >> these temperatures are rising. >> there's about one billion people who are malnourished. that number just continually grows . john: but the opposite is true. fewer people are malnourished.

yes, the world is a little bit warmer but agriculturallal production is up. there are not more floods wildfires, hurricanes or droughts. yes, california has a bad drought now but they've always had them and today's is not nearly as bad as the dust bowl in the 30s. and, no, scarers never do. even though their news special got very specific, the writers predicted what life would be like now. this month. >> june 8th, 2015. >> one carton of milk is 12.99. >> gas has reached over $9 a gallon. . john: both gas and milk still cost less than $3, i asked an abc reporter if he wanted to comment. he didn't call me back. i'm gladio i would be glad to
