Page 14 - Crisis Management

Scientifically complex

Paradoxically, the science surrounding the

crisis must be extremely complex and
impenetrable to the ordinary person. This

is essential, as otherwise people would be

able to make reasoned decision on what is
right and what is wrong. So, the science

surrounding the disposal of the Brent Spar

was very complex – how many pollutants
were on the spar and how much damage

would they do? Would the structure, as it

sunk to the bottom of the North Atlantic,
provide a heaven for the sea creates

there? Or would it damage the ecology of

the ocean floor?
