Saturday, April 22, 2017. New York City – Thousands of people gathered in Central Park for a rally and march in support of science. They also celebrated Earth Day which is today.
Short video of the march.
(#DivestmentDay: May 13, 2017. 10am. Union Square, NYC. More info: www.grassrootsactionny.com/divest).
Thousands of people marched in different cities around the world.
These are some of the photographs that I took of the event.

Organizers said on their website www.MarchForScience.NYC, “March for Science NYC is a celebration of our love of science. From little things we take for granted – medicines, refrigeration, GPS, sports statistics, and clean water – to the astonishing complexity of this planet and its creatures, science is everywhere and impacts everyone. As scientists and science enthusiasts, our insatiable curiosity, fierce dedication, and dogged persistence has helped guide us to incredible innovations and uncover great knowledge that has shaped every part of our daily lives.
Recent political events are beginning to inhibit the scientific process and scientists across America are deeply concerned about the impact this could have on public health, the environment, and even really cool technological and engineering innovations. We want our community to understand that there is no political agenda in the lab. Scientists uncover facts and disclose them to the public, and at times, new policy or laws are erected due to them. It is imperative to understand, however, that the scientific facts are not created to support new legislation. The facts scientists uncover through their research are published regardless of whether something goes against long-established principles or ways of doing things.”

Today was Earth Day.

Marcha por la ciencia en NYC.
Sábado, 22 de Abril, 2017. Nueva York – Miles de personas se reunieron en el Parque Central para una manifestación y marcha en apoyo de la ciencia. También celebraron el Día de la Tierra que es hoy.
Miles de personas marcharon en diferentes ciudades alrededor del mundo.
Algunas de las fotografías que tomé de la demonstración y marcha.

The NYPD had too many barricades. It was like they didn’t want people to go to the march.

Los organizadores dijeron en su sitio web www.MarchForScience.NYC, “La marcha por la ciencia NYC es una celebración de nuestro amor por la ciencia. Desde las cosas pequeñas que damos por hecho – medicamentos, refrigeración, GPS, estadísticas deportivas y agua limpia – a la asombrosa complejidad De los científicos y los entusiastas de la ciencia, nuestra curiosidad insaciable, la dedicación feroz y tenaz persistencia ha ayudado a guiarnos a innovaciones increíbles y descubrir gran conocimiento que ha formado cada parte de nuestra vida cotidiana.
Los recientes acontecimientos políticos están comenzando a inhibir el proceso científico y los científicos de Estados Unidos están profundamente preocupados por el impacto que esto podría tener en la salud pública, el medio ambiente y hasta las innovaciones tecnológicas y de ingeniería realmente geniales. Queremos que nuestra comunidad entienda que no hay agenda política en el laboratorio. Los científicos descubren hechos y los revelan al público, y a veces, se erigen nuevas políticas o leyes debido a ellos. Sin embargo, es imperativo entender que los hechos científicos no se crean para apoyar una nueva legislación. Los hechos descubiertos por los científicos a través de sus investigaciones se publican independientemente de si algo va en contra de los principios o formas de hacer las cosas desde hace mucho tiempo.”
