There are facts/science, and then there are judgements on top.

If the facts say the risk is 0.000001% in the presence of a pesticide Fred may judge that it should be banned. If the facts say the risk is 50%, Sally may judge no action is required.

Fred and Sally are both making judgements based on science; but may have different goals, priorities, etc. that cause them to arrive at different conclusions.
