Answer:Social activists work to promote, guide, or impede changes in government or business policies and influence the actions of individuals and groups. They build connections among groups and communities and disseminate information on specific issues to create awareness and influence social change.
Many of society's problems are related to the chemical systems that make up the environment (or the chemicals that pollute it), medicines and agricultural chemicals that can affect standards of living, and leaders who abuse their own people or their opponents in war. International teams of scientists can act as diplomats among their respective nations, working to communicate their common goals to their fellow citizens and national leaders, or they may do forensics work to detect the use of chemical weapons or monitor environmental treaties. Scientists may also work to improve standards of living in developing nations by helping citizens set up education programs, provide and implement new technologies, and/or create new jobs in areas such as environmental remediation and sustainable agriculture and manufacturing processes.
