Right Bill, tell that to these Nazi artillery soldiers in WWII. I suspect your Global Warming tripe is equally well sourced.
The Earth does not power itself... what the heck are these people smoking.
Idiot Nye doesn’t know recent history. Our Special Ops guys in Afghanistan used horses for many of their operations.
The Ethiopians used horses and camels against the Italians in the 1930’s. The Poles used them to attack German tanks in 1939.
Lawrence of Arabia used horses in his attacks on the Turks, and Black Jack Pershing used horses and an airplane to track down Pancho Villa and his raiders.
My late father-in-law started out in the old Horse Cavalry in the late 1930’s. Ended up on foot at Iwo.
Pack Mules and horses were used for carrying supplies throughout all theaters of war in WW2 and possibly in Korea.
Bill Nye, the ignorant guy, knows nothing of history and to him, science is still a mystery.
Horseshit Utopia! I envision a horse in every parking spot in New York City! Get er done Bill you ignorant moron, but I repeat myself.
Bye makes it sound like WWI was eco-friendly. I guess he missed the part about the hi-tech weapons of that age like machine guns, tanks, aircraft, poison gas, and long range artilary with high explosive shells. A war which left so much “debris” they’re still finding unexploded shells to this day.
Every liberal is a violent totalitarian thug.
Someone should post a picture of ‘Speed Walker’ on every Bill Nye thread until it sinks in...this guy is a B-list comedian...that’s all.
Bill Nye the BS guy seems to equate rapid changes in war fighting practices with “climate change”.
A fallacy of epic proportions.
Three decades after the start of WWI, my Uncle C was hauling - by truck - German POWs from the front in wholesale quantity, and they were generally amazed that there wasn't a a Yank horse to be seen, whereas Allied fighter-bombers and artillery had destroyed a staggering amount of the considerable horseflesh impressed into service by the Wehrmacht. Nye's causal relationships are bizarre to say the least, but maybe he can draw some correlation between Mann's hockey stick and hauling Germans by GMC truck versus letting them ride to the Marne on horses.
Mr. niteowl77
He thinks Ted Kaczynski was on the right track....
“Can anyone tell me what this gibberish means? “
It means; “I am relevant. I am important. You are an idiot and I am here to save you from yourself. I am a modern day Jesus; follow me to your salvation!” (That’s the gist I got from it.)
Bill Nye, who lied...
What Nye doesn’t know is that in 1900, 93 million acres wete used for hay production for horses. About the same amount which is used for corn production now.
Horse manure in the streets was a problem, it stunk and carried diseases throughout the year.
Right Bill, tell that to these Nazi artillery soldiers in WWII. I suspect your Global Warming tripe is equally well sourced.
Apparently we’ve got to go BACK to riding horses, except horse (and cow) farts are killing the planet.
Well then we need to get the population down to a “manageable” one-billion people worldwide.
Maybe the CDC has something in their vault that would decimate the population.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horses_in_World_War_I
The use of horses in World War I marked a transitional period in the evolution of armed conflict. Cavalry units were initially considered essential offensive elements of a military force, but over the course of the war, the vulnerability of horses to modern machine gun and artillery fire reduced their utility on the battlefield.
Horse farts Bill, horse farts.
Check with Brian Williams, I’m sure he was there.
Here’s what means:
All of the great industrialists and practicioners, and theoretical physicists of the early 20th century did the math on energy/power transfer. Their conclusions were that solar and wind were not economicly viable or practical solutions to meet the needs of a changing world.
Their disciples have been reaching the same conclusions for the past 80 years.
He’s lost his mind. We have to believe the global warming lies and that men in dresses are women. Go away bill. People are always skeptical of known liars.
Apparently, Nye wants us all to ride horses and he doesn't think anyone does anymore.
