摘要：Today, decision makers are faced by diverse complex and
interlinked challenges ranging from climate change to food
shortages. The complexity of such issues often means that
only scientists can provide rational and objective support
for decision making. However, the role of science is not to
“solve” the problem, but rather to help decision makers analyze
the possible solutions taking into account trade-offs between often
conflicting goals (such as cost, environmental and social impacts,
risks, etc.), which are often impossible to evaluate precisely.
