The editorial concludes:
As with any successful dialogue, the parties involved need to rise to the occasion. If governments are to make wise science-policy decisions--national and global--and are seriously open to public views, then they must engage the public at the right time, based on good practice. And if the public take the time to think, discuss, and become informed about issues, their observations can help science to better serve society.
