The cases of COVID-19 and climate change highlight the central role of scientific research which supposedly guides political decision-making. Models and scenarios assume a central role. However, science cannot tell us what to do. While it provides important facts and metrics, uncertainties remain and decisions are based on considerations pertaining to fundamental values. Apart from these similarities, my aim is to emphasize some significant differences. They relate to policy goals, international cooperation, data and metrics, values, and the time horizons involved. This article is categorized under:Social Status of Climate Change Knowledge > Climate Science and Decision Making.
新冠疫情和气候变化的案例凸显了科学研究的核心作用，科学研究理应指导政治决策。模型和情景分析发挥着核心作用。然而，科学无法告诉我们该做什么。虽然它提供了重要事实和指标，但不确定性依然存在，决策是基于与基本价值观相关的考量做出的。除了这些相似之处，我的目的是强调一些显著差异。它们涉及政策目标、国际合作、数据和指标、价值观以及所涉及的时间范围。本文分类如下：气候变化知识的社会地位>气候科学与决策。
