| Union of Concerned Scientists |  | Founded in 1969, UCS was born out of a teach-in organized by a group of scientists and students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to protest the militarization of scientific research and promote science in the public interest. The gathering took place during the height of the Vietnam War—in the same year Cleveland's heavily polluted Cuyahoga River caught fire. Appalled by how the U.S. government was misusing science, our founders drafted a statement calling for scientific research to be directed away from military technologies to solving pressing environmental and social problems. To that end, UCS initially focused the spotlight on defense-related research, nuclear weapons, and nuclear power. | | Visit Website | | Office Address | Two Brattle Sq., Cambridge, MA, 02238-9105 USA | | Phone | (617) 547-5552 | | Fax | (617) 864-9405 | | Executives | Kevin Knobloch, President | | Cheryl Schaffer, Director Finance and Administration |
