It discusses how scientific evidence and expert opinions are often central to debates over issues like water management, climate change, and healthcare, yet these are frequently overshadowed by political and economic considerations. The special features interviews with scientists, policy experts, and voters to illustrate the challenges of incorporating scientific data into the democratic process, highlighting specific examples such as Proposition 7, which dealt with daylight saving time, and Proposition 3, which concerned water bonds.
