Not just Christians who are anti science, but religions. The Arab nations were the most advanced a couple thousand years ago in science and math. That is why you use Arabic numerals. The Europeans adopted what they learned from them. Then Islam came along, dragging them backwards.
Christianity was a believer in burning down libraries and fighting scientific knowledge. The Dark Ages are a reminder oif what they did and are still doing when we let them get away with it. Remember the Inquisition? Those powers are stll alive and well in the church.

This comes from their misunderstanding of what 'science' is...
Science is defined by philosophy as 'a set of falsifiable theories'. That's literally all science is.
Atheists tend to think that science is some sort of "method" (they can never describe what it is) and they seem to think that science uses supporting evidence (it doesn't) and that science can prove things (it can't).
I think a decent amount of people who hold to the religion of Creationism become "anti-science" because they don't understand what religion and science even are, so they think that science is an "enemy" to their God.
I understand what both of them are, and I am a Creationist Christian who is not "anti-science".

What I have noticed in climate stuff is that there a large disconnect between what the researchers say and what the "Climate scientists" say about the research. Researchers say we need more research generally. The Climate "Scientists" proclaim that the research done by the researchers who think we need more research conclusive "proves" things the researchers who did the research labeled a possibility but allowed for alternate explanations. One case I recall specifically encountering this with was a group of British researchers who were measuring water temps in the antarctic that found warmer than expected temps, but acknowledged they don't have a lot of real world data to compare it to, especially at depths, and that the reason could be the prevailing winds were pushing warmer waters toward the area. All the alternate explanations were tossed out the window when their study reached the hands of the "Climate Scientists".
The Theory of Evolution isn't even science, to be honest... It is a religion.
Science is a set of falsifiable theories.
Religion is an initial circular argument with additional arguments extending from that initial circular argument.
The Theory of Evolution is non-falsifiable, so it is not science. It is religion.
