Bill Nye Freaks Out After Scientist Schools Him On Climate Change

Comedian Bill Nye accused CNN of doing a “disservice” to its viewers for inviting a well-respected physicist on Earth Day to argue about the legitimacy of man-made global warming.

Nye, who is well known for hosting a children’s TV show in the 1990s, scolded CNN’s “New Day Saturday” panel Saturday for pitting his environmentalist pedigree against the climate skepticism of physicist William Happer.

He also suggested the 24-news channel should instead drown out people like Happer with 98 scientists who believe in man-made global warming.

“And I will say, much as I love the CNN, you’re doing a disservice by having one climate change skeptic and not 97 or 98 scientists or engineers concerned about climate change,” Nye said after the Princeton University academic suggested that it is a “myth” to believe that carbon dioxide is a pollutant causing widespread ecological destruction.

Here’s the mythbuster: If he brings 97 or 98 guys in, our side can easily match that...there isn’t just 1.

Did his bow tie start spinning? He is a flaming liberal @$$h0!3 and a useful idiot to the Marxists.

When the Climate Change pushers advocate incarcerating and executing non-believers, you know their ‘science’ is on shaky ground.

Why else would they be insistent on just Draconian punishments for those speaking in opposition?

It is the Climate Change pushers who are the danger to society and to the planet.

The hyperventilating among the AGW/Climate Change grifters further undermines their position. I recently heard a senior faculty member of a University sciences department say that, “Science is under attack!” simply because the number of people who buy their Climate Change hustle is declining.

This is what chafes me about the ‘march on science’. When your scientific position falls back on numerical superiority, you have an evidence problem.

How many scientists were lined up against Galileo? Essentially, what Nye is arguing for is jailing scientists offering evidence that would disprove a prevailing scientific BELIEF, as if there is room for faith in science.

By the way, this is yet one more reason why we may not lose all that much if the Norks actually do nuke Seattle. The physical beauty of this area is at least extraordinary, and would be a loss, but wow is this place to far gone. Nye is a Seattle product.

Anyway, as long as the molecular weight of CO2 is less than the molecular weight of O2, phytoplankton will continue to thrive in the oceans. Tough to be a greenhouse gas when you are heavier than O2. N2 makes up most of the atmosphere (70 percent or so), which is good because it is lighter than O2, which drives O2 down to the surface of the planet where we can breath it all in.

Water vapor, by far, BY FAR is the major source of greenhouse effect. We can ban the rain I guess. Any group willing to try and label CO2 a pollutant might just try to do that I guess.

Thankfully, H2O is lighter than all of them, which is why we get clouds, and the ‘greenhouse effect’.

Sad, really.

Correction, CO2 is HEAVIER than O2. Early here and before coffee, but this made me mad early.

Ah, but the person in question makes their reputation and living from grant-funded research. Grant whores say the darndest things.

Everyone must evaluate the facts and information that one can find, and decide which side of this absurd and contentous fraud they may take.

So much is wrong with the mindset and conclusions forced on us by Global Warming Opportunists, like Bill Nye, that the argument has been removed from one over legitimate climate science, and replaced with hysterical leftist political coercion.

This is nothing but mindless “chicken little” scaremongering, to promote a technocratic authoritarian take over of the world’s energy economy, and thereby the world economy. Nye is nothing but a blithering pawn of NWO fascism.

I’m surprised BillyN hasn’t gone on tour with moslem “expert” Capt. Sullenberger.

Liberalism can only survive when they control the playing field. They must be able to spread their lies unopposed.

That's why they are desperate to flood America with illegal crimigrant invaders, because Americans are getting wise to the filth of liberalism.

Yeah, I want to be lectured about science and global warming by a guy with a B.S. in mechanical engineering.

How is the Scientific Method is used in “climate science?”

Nobody can ever seem to answer that. Science without the scientific method is like music without sounds.
