Bill Nye Tells MSNBC To Say Climate Change, Not Global Warming, When It’s Cold Out
Daily Caller ^ | February 17, 2015 | By Michael Bastasch

Posted on 02/17/2015 10:38:14 PM PST by Brad from Tennessee

Words are everything, even in the global warming debate. TV personality Bill Nye the “Science Guy” told MSNBC’s Joy Reid to use the phrase climate change, not global warming, when it’s so cold out.

“Let’s not confuse or interchange climate change with global warming,” Nye told Reid on Monday. “Global warming – The world is getting warmer. There is more carbon [dioxide] holding in more heat.”

“So when the climate changes, some places get colder,” Nye added. “And the thing that’s really consistent with climate change models is this variance where it’s cold, it’s warm, it’s cold, it’s warm… So what I would hope for, my dream, Joy, is that you all, you and the news business would just say the word climate change.”

Nye’s remarks come as the U.S. is hit by another “arctic blast” that is sweeping through the Midwest and East Coast this week with temperatures plunging across the country. Tuesday’s highs are supposed to hit 10 to 20 degrees Fahrenheit across the eastern half of the country. . .

>> And the thing that’s really consistent with climate change models is this variance bla bla bla

In other words, your models have no predictive power.

In yet other words, your models are flawed.

Tell me again why we should engage in a global wealth leveling scheme (with the priesthood extracting their twenty percent off the top) based solely upon provably flawed models?

That’s insane.

“Nye’s thesis of “Climate Change” proposes a year divided into seasons of cold, warming, hot, and cooling (or Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall). “

Lol! Suggestion for Nye; how about using “climate difficulty”, as in difficulty getting weather patterns to match up with his lying models.

The way to test models is to take a set of data and look for solutions that produce the data examined. The first step of the model would be to look for a closed form solution which fits nicely. Then algorithms, variables, offsets, etc.....

The next step is to have peers (or anyone for that matter) take the model and use other historical data to see if the output matches the outcomes experienced (actually measured).

The problem with these models is that the developers cherry pick data that fits their AGW hypothesis, exclude data that doesn’t and then takes a small subset that causes the model to work, and they call that settled science.

They can either produce a model for anyone to use and input data from any time, place, etc. and run it and get an output to compare against historical measurements, or they can just STFU.

Bill Nye has a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. He has no academic qualifications to call himself a scientist.

Bill Nye clearly has a disordered mind. There is no contest if he debates with a real scientist, only blather comes out of his mouth.

These idiots even failed to accurately measure the “super winter storm” back east and they think they can predict the future?

Effing libtards. They already know their Glowbull Warming propaganda failed, so they come up with another propaganda cutesy term..

If the climate ever STOPS CHANGING, everyone should be terrified. The lack of the completion of the sentence is the power of illusion upheld by the Mother Gaia religious fanatics.

... PROVEN, significant and of any influence MAN-MADE climate change.

From what I understand, Nye is a mechanical engineer. Engineering is a profession, and one of the biggest no-nos of engineering is to claim expertise outside of what one has carefully studied and proven capable of doing. In other words, a mechanical engineer shouldn’t claim expertise on the environment, because that is not something mechanical engineers are trained or qualified on. Correct me if I’m wrong fellow engineers.
