Computational biology and ecology are a huge part of those fields. I work at a research lab (in computer science) and one of our sister labs is dedicated to environmental stuff and has mostly biologists and ecologists employed at it; a large part of the research they do involves supercomputing somehow, so we tend to partner with them a lot. As an example, modeling population growth or decline due to a change in the population's environment is one such use of computing and statistics in biology and ecology.
Yes, and after time on RedNote, I believe it's because of them simply believing what western media says about it, but since they're not also living in it, they don't get to also see the negatives.
