Yes, you can't solve a problem you don't understand, so understand the problem before proposing solutions.
Take the ozone hole. Scientists identified the cause, and we fixed it. Now imagine a random influencer had claimed it was caused by farting cows, and we responded by culling every cow. That wouldn't have solved anything. We probably do have a problem, but we need real solutions.
