I really don't understand why people don't trust experts anymore and go full on dunning kruger. Or maybe we see them more today because they now are all over the internet (and sadly in politics) and proudly present their wrong claims on social media. We can be glad that the problem with the ozone layer was many years ago. Otherwise we wouldn't get that solved today either. Same with climate change or vaccines.
