Teach the Scientific method over and over...
How many times has one heard otherwise educated adults say of science, "it's a theory not a fact"?
They'll tap it out on a computer blithely unaware that its operation is based on theories of electromagetism.
They'll declare it from a chair on a stage, seemingly unaware that the downward force they exert on both is entirely predictable due to a theory of gravitation.
One way to start would be to clearly teach the scientific method to kids...
