Did Bill Nye just suggest the U.S. will have to annex Canada to grow crops?

Canada has long grown plenty of crops.

Okay, let’s ignore the fact that there’s no proof temperatures will rise THAT significantly in our lifetimes, let alone the fact that we probably aren’t causing it, and let’s just get to the pure idiocy of this statement. Just because temperatures rise DOESN’T MEAN YOUR CLIMATE ALSO BECOMES ARID LIKE A DESERT.

Billy-boy, they have these high temperature humid climates where lots of things grow. They’re call tropical and subtropical climates. Go read a book

That sure sounds like a take-over to me.

So. What he’s saying is climate change is a localized phenomenon? It respects borders by remaining in the US and in selected areas/cities/states and nowhere else?

“As global temperatures rise, Nye said, “the growing (of crops) in North America is going to have to move north into what would nominally be Canada. We don’t have the infrastructure, we don’t have the railroads and roads to get food from that area to where we need it around the world”.

1. Why should we send food around the world (this is an honest question, I do not get this.

2. Don’t we use planes for stuff?

3. If we had to ‘get food around the world’ why wouldn’t we just invest in building infrastructure?

4. Do we just annex countries now? We certainly don’t own Canada. Don’t they get a say in this?

Guy’s got an engineering degree. You’d think he’d make at least a little effort not to be a total tool. Embarrassing.

5. What a ridiculous premise about the weather, anyway.

1) I'd be willing to take all those fossil fuels off of Canada's hands for them - no charge.

2) I'll issue their PM a receipt & coupon worth 43 bazillion carbon credits.

If they can hook me up with some of that global warming - it's too cold down here.

“its 40 below in the midwest and these lunatics are still talking about global warming???!”

In the church of Goebbels Warming, it’s well known that Goebbels Warming causes it to be extraordinarily cold.

Goebbels Warming causes:

Too much rain, snow, cold, hot, storms
Too little rain, snow, cold, hot, storms
Just the right amount of rain, snow, cold, hot, storms

If the climate gets that bad there will be increased piracy on the Canadian rivers.
