"Last month, courts on both sides of the Atlantic delivered a clear verdict:
when classifying titanium dioxide as carcinogenic, regulatory agencies had
overreached.
These parallel legal defeats expose deeper questions about who gets to
interpret contested science.
In the modern world, legal decisions – especially ones dealing with regulation
– are increasingly based on complex science. But sometimes, the science isn’t
settled. When certainty remains elusive, who gets to be the authority?"
