Bill Nye wants to remind you of the seriousness of global warming and he's not mincing words.

The well known science commentator appeared on "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" on Sunday and put things bluntly while talking about the Green New Deal, introduced by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Ed Markey.

Nye wants you to know, "The planet's on [expletive] fire."

"By the end of this century, if emissions keep rising, the average temperature on Earth could go up another four to eight degrees," Nye said. "What I'm saying is the planet's on [expletive] fire. There are a lot of things we could do to put it out -- are any of them free? No, of course not. Nothing's free, you idiots. Grow the [expletive] up. You're not children anymore. I didn't mind explaining photosynthesis to you when you were 12. But you're adults now, and this is an actually crisis, got it? Safety glasses off, [expletive]."

What are the odds he won’t be around to see this not happen? How much does discreditation mean after you’re gone & forgotten?

Thanks for the list of terrors un leased by the mediots and their lying fake scientists.

Amazing how we have survived all of these dire predictions.

If Bill Nye is so smart...

...why doesn't he use the CO₂ fire extinguisher?
