Stunningly well-made video about scientific methods using the example of climate change.
I highly recommend every community member to watch it as it highlights sciences guiding principles that we employ as well like
- hypothesis testing
- peer reviews
- modeling
- margin of errors and confidence levels
and highlights problems like
- lacking media scrutiny
- tendencies to either trust or not trust experts/sources but not to verify ourselves
- examples of scientific failures and a description of root causes
