[Irtalk] Climate Case for Open Access | ECS Redcat Blog

[Hilton Gibson]

In my view, the bold pledge to move toward open access at ECS has serious
implications for action on climate change. *If we can make the scientific
research results and latest findings more widely accessible, we may speed
up the scientific discovery process. Perhaps a young scientist in the
developing world will unlock the key to some perplexing scientific dilemma,
once we’ve made the latest findings more freely available in an ECS
journal.* Many of us believe we can accelerate the pace of innovation, and
help solve critical challenges by opening access to scientific research.
You can support those efforts by donating to the ECS Publications Endowment.
