Astrophysicist Brian Greene makes an excellent point here, but I’m not holding my breath. In the brief (15-year) period of time since the launch of 2GreenEnergy, our public education standards have continued to deteriorate, while our kids’ interest in science remains feeble.
At the same time, “grown-up” Americans have begun to ridicule the phase “trust the science,” and there is no consensus that public policy should be based on scientific findings. In fact, we just re-elected a president whose support base rejects science as it applies to both environmental stewardship and epidemiology.
Culturally, the U.S. Is Turning Even Further Away from Science
Those who stand in opposition to the president have dozens of different reasons for their feelings. One, as is on display here, is that he’s an ignoramus.
Not sure about this.
A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School might struggle to identify a bear. Could be.
This is the intelligence level of the American electorate today.
The Chinese ownership of American farmland is less than 0.00036, or 0.036%. To put this into perspective, if the entirety of U.S. farmland were reduced to one acre, the Chinese government and business interests would own less than 15 square feet, about half the size of a small broom closet.
Yet, true to form, this is a huge issue for the MAGA base.
