#41 - John Droz: “Science is being very systematically and aggressively attacked”

John received undergraduate degrees in Physics and Mathematics from Boston College, and a graduate degree in Physics from Syracuse University. He subsequently worked for GE (Aerospace Electronics: Utica, NY), Mohawk Data Sciences (Herkimer, NY), and Monolithic Memories (Cupertino, CA).
After retiring at 34 (due to his successful investment program) he was actively involved in various community activities. In 1984 John and his wife Elaine bought a rental property in Emerald Isle, NC (sold in 2015). In 2009 they sold their primary residence in NY and moved to Morehead City, NC. Throughout this period they have kept a Summer Adirondack (NY) cottage.
As a resident of the Adirondacks, he has been a participating member of several environmental organizations (e.g., the Adirondack Council, Association for Protection of the Adirondacks, Residents’ Committee to Protect the Adirondacks, Sierra Club, NYS Federation of Lakes).
This led to a 40+ year commitment as a Science advocate. During the initial years John was a leading individual on three NY state-wide issues: electrical energy options, water extraction, and water quality. He received no funding for any of this activity. In subsequent years, his areas of interest and expertise expanded to include climate change, COVID-19, and election integrity.
John’s main focus is about implementing genuine science as the basis of our technical policies. Unbeknown to most, real Science is under an incessant assault by self-serving lobbyists (e.g., renewable energy lobbyists). His belief is that this undermining of Science (replacing it with political science) will have catastrophic effects on the success and security of our society.
