Young People
How important is science to young people in the world today?

I was curious as to how important science was to young people in the world today. The reason I ask is that I feel in todays society a lot of apsects of science are becoming too advanced for some people and a lot of people are becoming disengaged or untrusting of science. What do you think?
ok now that most people agree that it is important do you think that people are becoming disengaged with science? Why?

incredibly important.

i’m upper 6th (year 13) at the moment, and i study biology, chemistry, physics and maths (and music).

i’m going to be a surgeon, so i’d say science is one of the most important things in my life, seeing as my whole career will be based on it.

as for becoming disengaged with science, at school, it obviously helps if the teachers are good :)
but in the real world, i guess it’s probably because things aren’t explained as well. i always find it really helpful when i know everything about something, not just a little bit. i agree that sometimes it can be very advanced, but in general, there are fairly simple explanations for everything :)
