Founded in 1987 and based in Oakland, California the Pacific Institute is an independent, nonpartisan think-tank studying issues at the intersection of development, environment, and security.This is the last post for the Pacific Institute's Integrity of Science blog. We've really enjoyed our time at ScienceBlogs and think this is a great community. To quote a walrus, "You're such a lovely audience, we'd like to take you home with us, we'd love to take you home."
At this time, the Pacific Institute is going to be refocusing its blogging effort to go beyond the work of our Science Integrity program and incorporate all the work we do: from securing safe drinking water in Africa to cleaning up diesel truck traffic in Oakland to making sure that international corporate social responsibility standards are meaningful. Look for a mid-fall release of the new Pacific Institute blog at www.pacinst.org.
We will continue to work to defend science from political and corporate assaults. You can keep abreast of our work on this issue at www.integrityofscience.org.
To keep abreast of all of the Pacific Institute's work, I encourage you to sign up for our e-mail newsletter.
Much thanks to Katherine and everyone at ScienceBlogs and Seed Media for giving us the opportunity to blog here.
Happy trails,
Ian Hart
Editor, Integrity of Science blog
