I don't think it's underrated at all. Everyone in geology adores it.

ecology/earth system science for numerous reasons.
Most importantly, the better we understand how the living world works, the better prospects we have of surviving ever worsening biodiversity and constraint holocaust.
And there is just so much to be understood, very fulfilling. Ecology is arguably the oldest vein of science, it is the study of life at home after all. concepts from ecology are helpful for understanding all aspects of living.
also literally everything i mentioned in this depressingly neglected thread >>9308964
oh and dont forget the rest of the marco life sciences like ethology, evolution, pop dynamics

zzzzzI APOLOGIZE FOR THE READABILITY OF NEXT PART im scronked and cant contiune this trai of thought, yayadayada free life

underrated because the living real world isnt compatible with authority, and coercion, you hsve to funnel it into industry to make profit, subsidies and state violence on behalf of private economic power make sure of that. We get paid to suffer, so we can pay off our debts, people dont even notice that the life which holds this world together is kill, that means free energy with no constraints to enslave it, that means death. and for what? so the equity firms and transnational corporations can turn it into capital by selling it to us, i see dead Mubiti, broken forests and empty ocean every time i go get food at a retail place
