/sci/ - Science & Math

/sci/, as someone with a formal education in Climatology and Meteorology (via Geography), nothing infuriates me more than people with no knowledge of weather or climate argue about climate change (be it for or against).

It's extremely bemusing to see people argue about climatic change, yet they don't know the formation of a depression, or how lightning is formed, or fuck, why it rains! This is meteorology 101, yet these people are meant to have the answers regarding Climate Change.

When I was writing my Masters thesis, I wrote on how Climate Change has to be accepted, and adaptation measures must be put in place for the sake of the future built environment. At the moment, the amount of skepticism about Climate Change is ridiculous and it really isn't helped by these so-called "scientists" who are giving their opinion on Climate Change.

Fuck, I've seen news broadcasts where medical doctors or biologists are cited regarding their "scientific expertise" on Climate Change. These people have no fucking basis on this subject. It would be like me as a Geographer being asked on my opinion on the Higgs Boson or some shit, my scientific opinion on that topic is totally irrelevant, as my personal opinion.

I mean there's some subjects which are linked and are relevant. I mean Atmospheric Physics definitely is, but subjects like Geology or Geomorphology definitely have an important role regarding the effects of Climate Change but they aren't actually about the hard science of Global Atmospheric Change. E.g. Continental Drift, supports it, via Pangea etc.

Sorry for the rant, there is no real purpose but I'm tired of people shitting up science with their shit opinions about shit they have no basis in. I mean if you don't understand how pic related is important in relation to Climate Change you should not be fucking talking about it.

It's like those shit stirring people who shit on vaccinations but don't know anything about it. They aren't fucking doctors or whatever.
