The forum has announced an indefinite ban on discussions related to global warming and climate change due to difficulties in moderation and a lack of climate science experts among the staff. This decision, effective January 11th, aims to prevent disruptive debates that have arisen from the topic, which many members find contentious and emotionally charged. While other Earth science topics can still be discussed, the staff hopes to eventually revisit the climate change issue with proper guidance. Members express disappointment over the ban, emphasizing the importance of scientific discourse and the need for a platform to discuss diverse views within climate science. The forum remains committed to education in scientific processes, despite the challenges posed by this particular subject.
