let me disagree with that; many argues that modern science started with Galileo. The guy knew Latin. But he decided to write in Italian (and not Latin), because he wanted his results to be accessible to "everybody", and useful.
I agree that English has reached the Latin status today, but - in the bigger picture - it's just spoken by a cosmopolitan elite, most of the people don't speak it or they don't speak it well.
So, there is always a strong case for doing science, or everything, really, in your local language, especially if you want to be really inclusive.
p.s. I am not saying that people shouldn't strive to learn english, but there is a BIG case to use your own language, both for science and business.
