Bill Nye ‘The Science Guy’ Says ‘Climate Deniers’ Suffer Psychological Delusions

Bill Nye said Monday that climate change skeptics suffer from a psychological problem preventing them from understanding how so-called man-made global warming affects their daily lives.

Climate change skeptics suffer from cognitive dissonance on global warming, a type of psychological disorder that prevents people from recognizing reality, the comedian and former TV show host told Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders during a Facebook Live event.

“To the deniers out there. I want you to think about what is called cognitive dissonance,” Nye said, referring to situations wherein people prefer to bury their head in the sand instead of facing reality. It’s up to environmentalists and everybody else to save skeptics from themselves, he added.

“Instead of accepting that the climate is changing, deniers are denying the evidence and dismissing the authorities” simply because they don’t want to face a harsh reality, Nye said.

The two climate change warriors went on to complain how fossil fuel companies’ unwillingness to change their ways could lead to catastrophe.

Right... The “Science Guy” has a BS in Mechanical Engineering. He’s no more “The Science Guy” than your plumber. Hell, your plumber probably has more common sense.

Science is not a factor here ... Instead, irrational emotions is what we see.

Anyone who dares challenge Nye's secular religious dogma of "global warming" (or by the second-coming known as "climate change") is not just wrong, they are a heretic (aka, a "denier").

Maybe, but they don’t suffer from the psychological stress of worry over “climate change.”

Bill Nye never lets any “SCIENCE” interfere with his leftist politics, that’s for sure.

So tell me Mr. Science Guy, what exactly in your studies for your bachelors degree for mechanical engineering did you become qualified in either psychology or climate science to make such statements?

All of human activity world wide accounts for about 3% of the CO2 released per year... or in other words, if every human being dropped dead tomorrow and every factory stopped, every car stopped every fossil fuel burning quit.... it would result in 3% less total CO2 per year in the atmosphere... that’s it.

Secondly for the record CO2 Levels have been insanely higher than they are today in earths past, long before any humans walked the earth... The climate will change, it always changes... the question is are humans causing it to change and if so how much... and the reality is even the climate scientists who believe human activity is changing the climate are not claiming that we are destroying the planet... that’s being claimed by people who have an axe to grind or dollar to make hawking this claim.

I don’t think he’s an idiot, but he has been influence by people who clearly want and need people to believe a few PPM of CO2 will ruin the earth...which is utter nonsense.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Must be nice to be a “science” guy without an education in science.
