A day without memes is a day without humor these days... combine it with a subject such as science and you might think you'd get a mediocre combination at best. I mean, how funny can memes based on chemistry (unless you are a fan of Breaking Bad) or physics even be? Well, don't be too fast to judge, Pandas, as you might be in for a surprise.

    This is fantastic! I must remember this one! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Bored Panda recently interviewed Roger Harris, the person behind the famous Facebook group 'Science Humor.' With a twinkle in his eye and a meme always at the ready, Roger not only possesses expertise in the field of science but also excels at managing one of the largest groups on the social platform.

    When asked about the challenges faced while moderating a group of such magnitude, Harris told us, "Ah, challenges, there've been many. Just the other day, someone tried to share a meme about Schrödinger's cat that was neither here nor there. But jokes aside, moderating a group this size is like conducting a rather large and chaotic experiment. The trickiest bit is balancing free expression with maintaining decorum. Thankfully, with a set of strict rules and a spot of British resilience, we've managed quite alright."

    The unique balance of humor and education is evident in the moderator's approach. When diving into the essence of integrating humor with science, he stated, "I've always believed that a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, and in this case, a good joke can make even the most complex scientific theory digestible. If our memes and jokes spark a moment of curiosity or even better, a Google search, then I believe we're on the right path to promoting science in the most delightful way possible."

    However, Roger's journey doesn't end here. As for the future of 'Science Humor,' he shared his aspirations, saying, "While 'Science Humor' has been a rollicking adventure, there's always the thought of where to next. Perhaps a 'Science Humor' YouTube channel? Or maybe a podcast? Though, I must confess, I'm partial to the idea of a book. 'Science Humor: A Decade of Memes & Enlightenment'. What do you reckon?"

    Unfortunately there is not such a simple solution. Even 'carbon neutral' schemes can still produce loads of CO2, they just offset it using 'carbon credits' to pump money into carbon reduction projects, many of which are not trusted by some people, including some scientists, to actually work in the long term to reduce CO2 emissions.

    It's too late. The point is that unlike the 80s, people now are anti-intellectual and don't believe the scientists or they're rich folks who understand and don't want their profits to suffer so they feed the anti-intellectualism.

    Yes, this is absolutely true - conservatives use the fact that regulations on CFCs *worked* as supposed "proof" that the regulations weren't necessary to.begin with. Reduction of CFCs and the chemical pollutants that caused acid rain are both environmental success stories.

    It took over 20 years and and a******s were doing their best to break the protocols. The original discovery happened when someone discovered that their program did not allow for a zero answer when studying the southern ozone layer - when they fixed the program, they said 'oh, s**t' and the hue and cry started

    I read that later researched showed that the ozone hole has always been there and increases and decreases in size naturally. Like when they said they about El Nino was a new things because of climate change and then local fisherman told them they had know about it for many generations.

    And in my day, we were told to fear the the hole in the ozone, and that we were facing a mini-ice age! I laugh at scientists and their fear mongering. The planet will survive, even If humans don't. And isn't that what ya'll are crying about? "save the planet" "save the whales/turtles/elephants/rhinoceros" yet not one of you is saying "save the humans" because you know we can't save ourselves. So why are you getting your panties in a twist when the planet earth and life on it will continue to exist in one form or another, with or without humans? There was life on earth before humans, for millions of years. L9l, imagine if t-rex thought "hey, we gotta worry about climate changes because one day we might not exist. Look at the bones I found of the other species that died millions of years before us! Wow, we gotta do something so we don't become extinct and mammals take over!" Lmao The news is all" no one in the americas/Asia / Europe is reproducing so there's few humans, and it's a problem". No, it's not a problem. It's probably the best thing Hans can do for the planet is not reproduce!

    You clearly didn't read the post. The hole in the ozone was mended by human cooperation. The joke was on somebody just like you... except it's not funny. Nobody says "save the planet" meaning they think the planet is going to explode. They were trying to prevent the changes that led to the conditions that are disasterous for humans and the other animals.

    A core principle of group founder's management style lies in fostering diversity and inclusivity. Elaborating on this idea, Harris remarked, "Science, much like humor, is a universal language. We've always aimed to ensure the 'Science Humor' group is as diverse as a Petri dish teeming with bacteria! Our mission is to represent every corner of the globe and every facet of science. After all, as they say, variety is the spice of life, and in our case, the formula for the best kind of humor."
