A cynical view to be sure, but not completely outlandish.

Learning is exhilerating, but alone, it serves no greater purpose." Ahem, I take Physics 189, and although I didn't quite enjoy talking about "social issues" in the beginning, the 'engineering', practical side of physics is evident. woo, go pure sciences =) Your optimism is astounding. Politics cannot be overcome by simple making-the-world better attitude. Politics is about power and money, and environmental problems just aren't immediate enough. And in any case, humanity won't last for eternity, so why try to make the future better when the present can be enjoyed 'more fully'? That's not my entire opinion, and I reserve the right the change and alter it, which I do daily =) Your optimism is astounding, and thank god we have people in engineering who are there, not for the 'prize' of prestige, but for the grand prize of saving us =) woo “I wanted to do something with knowledge.
