Answer:

n the past, our scientific methods and institutions have tended to emphasize the study of individual natural processes rather than systems, analysis more than synthesis, and understanding nature more than predicting its behaviour. And in many instances, science has focussed on short-term, small-scale problems, often in monodisciplinary mode, rather than on long-term, large-scale or integrated problems. While these approaches and perspectives have built up a considerable base of knowledge and led to a vast portfolio of useful technologies, especially in the 20th century, many of the problems now facing humankind can be solved only if we approach science more holistically. Greater effort is needed to understand integrated natural systems on multiple time and space scales.

Scientific findings must also be applied at the right scales. The impact of technological interventions on individual people, communities and the environment must also be carefully considered. To do this, science needs to become more multidisciplinary and its practitioners should continue to promote cooperation and integration between the social and natural sciences. A holistic approach also demands that science draw on the contributions of the humanities (such as history and philosophy), local knowledge systems, aboriginal wisdom, and the wide variety of cultural values.

The influence of science on people’s lives is growing. While recent benefits to humanity are unparalleled in the history of the human species, in some instances the impact has been harmful or the long-term effects give causes for serious concerns. A considerable measure of public mistrust of science and fear of technology exists today. In part, this stems from the belief by some individuals and communities that they will be the ones to suffer the indirect negative consequences of technical innovations introduced to benefit only a privileged minority. The power of science to bring about change places a duty on scientists to proceed with great caution both in what they do and what they say. Scientists should reflect on the social consequences of the technological applications or dissemination of partial information of their work and explain to the public and policy makers alike the degree of scientific uncertainty or incompleteness in their findings. At the same time, though, they should not hesitate to fully exploit the predictive power of science, duly qualified, to help people cope with environmental change, especially in cases of direct threats like natural disasters or water shortage

When do we use 'has' and 'had' together in the same sentence?Can You please give me examples with explanation?
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

1 . I have had lunch .

2. He has had lunch .

3. I had had lunch before you came.

Explanation:

This is one of the most confused about combinations as per my experience .I would firstly tell a bit of grammar part and then clarify with real day to day usage .

THE CONFUSION IF AT ALL COMES IS BECAUSE OF TWO DIFFERENT USAGES OF WORD “HAVE” . THEY LOOK AND SOUND LIKE SAME BUT PLEASE TREAT THEM DIFFERENTLY . So let's separate them like one of them is same like “ “AM,ARE,WILL,SHALL, “ the helping or auxiliary verbs ,and the second. “have “ is just like “ drive, eat, drink, watch” the main verb “ or I prefer to call “ Action”.
