Now on ScienceBlogs: The death of Tetrapod Zoology
The Integrity of Science Blog provides commentary and highlights news on attacks and misuse of science, particularly as it relates to water, climate change, and environmental security.
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.

While the Pacific Institute's Integrity of Science Program is only a little over a year old, the Pacific Institute is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2007.
