Times like this we could sure use a man like John Candy.

I’m more credentialed than Bill Nye, I at least have a masters in engineering as opposed to his bachelors degree. Yet nobody invites me on national television shows to rebut Bill Nye the science Nazi.

very versatile that Goebbels Warming, ha!
Bill Nye must be hoping for a bumper crop of icicles.
“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?”
Let me see if I can help you. There are global supply chains that move food, clothing, petrochemicals and other products around the globe. An example would be cocoa getting to the US from Africa for production of cookies, candies etc. The infrastructure is already in place.
The question never answered is, if global warming is going to kill food production, why don’t countries commit to the growing process Israel introduced in the early 70’s? Build a dripper system which enables crops to grow in sand. In hot climates, placing water which has nutrients directly on the plant will be much better then spraying them with sprinkler systems. Less water is used and the dripper system can be adjusted based on environmental factors.
If you really want to get technical, build desalination facilities off shore and pipe fresh water inland using pipes that are lined with solar collectors. Wow! Not only did I just solve the global warming hunger problem, I just solved the problem of people not having fresh water. New economies can arise and we can solve global poverty.
/I’m out. (mic drop)
I would shelve any plans for annexation and build some desalination plants for greater irrigation potential. Even without climate change that would always be a good idea.
Most of these idiots who rock on about agricultural zones shifting north don’t seem to realize that north of where we now farm in Canada, it’s all rocks, it would take thousands of years to change the landscape up there even if it was warm enough to grow crops. There are very few areas in far northern Alberta, the NWT or the Yukon suitable for more than subsistence agriculture, and it’s not the climate that is the key barrier, it’s the condition of the soil where there is soil at all. Either it’s too flat and poorly drained, or it’s too thin and patchy. We could imagine a five degree temperature rise to make some of those areas as warm as southern Saskatchewan is now, but they would not become productive land.
I’ve traveled a lot in the western U.S. and often wondered why there are not more large-scale irrigation projects. Large parts of Nevada for example seem to have some potential to grow crops if they had more water available. But obviously it would have to come from out of state, most of the mountain ranges in Nevada are bone dry like the lowlands. I think it has to be desalination although you could perhaps envisage a large reservoir being created somewhere in northeast California that gets adequate rainfall and could become the source of a large-scale irrigation network. The green movement would go berserk with any such proposal. So there’s that advantage also.
He’s NUTZ!
Man is he backwards... It won’t be long and we will have to build a wall on the northern border to keep hungry starving Canadians out because it will be too cold to grow anything up there. Crops have already been failing the last three years.
The west half of Canada is great. Would welcome them any day.
Nye is psychotic. Who the HELL talks about annexing another Country?
Oh, that’s right - I forgot... Adolf Hitler did.
Channeling his inner nazi, I guess.
Yeah, well, his ‘engineering degree’ is about as relevant to ‘climate change’ as a bowl of dead guppies. It takes serious fakery to come off as an obnoxious, hysterical spaz of that magnitude. But for a liberal, I think that’s a built-in design feature, kinda like headlights on a car.
he’s NOT a scientist! hey PLAYS a scientist on TV!!
It respects borders by remaining in the US and in selected areas/cities/states and nowhere else?
——-
What’s funny is that for years that was exactly what the anomaly maps showed, until they figured out a better way to blur them. That’s because they actually used different formulas inside and outside the US.
Not to mention that he 1) never actually checked the pressure after cooling the footballs , and 2) actually proved the opposite point by noting that he couldn’t tell the difference.
Bill Nye is an idiot. The climate is cooling as the Sun enters a Grand Solar Minimum. In the next ten years Canada and the northern US states will experience increased crop failures due to cold weather and severe storms.
Well I hope this global warming caused by climate change ends before we all freeze to death.
Times like this we could sure use a man like John Candy.
Canada will soon experience the turn of events, such that led to the Norse retreat from Greenland.
Dude, Alaska’s mad you forgot about it.
