Maybe your internet has slowed down and that episode of Orange is the New Black isn’t buffering. There are only so many Pepe the Frog memes on Instagram to like I guess. It’s more likely that you’re just someone I’ve click baited here Buzzfeed style and you’re just politely yet confusedly reading this. If you’re here for ’10 Times Adolf Hitler was TOTALLY relatable (and adorable)’ then you’re in for a disappointment. An article for another time perhaps.

Basically, I like science – science is interesting and cool. Maybe not in the conventional sense like clubbing, having sex and smoking, but I think it is. I also like the planet and the things that inhabit it and think ideas and innovations that look to keep the fuel wars/apocalypse at bay are cool too. Sometimes though, despite my best intentions, I find a lot stuff I read about that should excite me does the exact opposite. Science can also be really boring, dense and confusing.

You can see where this is going. Me, a man with no formal scientific qualifications and armed only with sheer nerd will-power, intends to simplify the science behind the things that should allow our children to use this planet in the future without fighting over its resources with makeshift spears or having drinking their own piss Bear Grylls style.

The environment. Science. Ben Kenobi not recognising R2-D2 in A New Hope. I’m aiming to be able to combine and explain at least two of these things in a way that we can both understand. Let’s learn about cool new innovations in green technology together. Let’s get behind innovations that can change our lives on this planet for the better. Let’s annoy our friends and loved ones with our incessant hippy science shit.

I’m also really good at photoshop.
