So I'm sure many of us here grew up with Bill Nye in some form, and for some of us he may have even been a big influence on our interest in science, but do we all agree that he needs to STFU?

He's knowledgeable and his heart is in the right place, but he's not an authority and shouldn't be treated as one. He routinely says things that are just plain wrong. But a lot of people (even those more educated than he is) don't want to undermine him because of politics.

Even Sarah Palin called him out on being an engineer and popsci tv show host and not an actual scientist.

Is Sarah Palin now /sci/?

Remember how hot she was 8 years ago lol?

>>8009962
No. I remember how I saw ancient pics of her that were hot but since I haven't been brainwashed by feminists and the MILF-meme to pursue menopausal women I never found her hot during her political career.

I've been saying this forever. He only has a BS Mech Engineering, yet he routinely runs his mouth about Biology and Climate Science.

Especially when he said race does not exist, and an actual expert evolutionary biologist (Dawkins) says it does.

Anyone worth any consideration of credibility in an intellectual discussion will understand the concept of bias.

I can get behind the idea of pop-sci and even the inaccurate exaggerations made from time to time by people like Bill Nye and black science man because it ultimately influences more people into STEM, and the potential intellectuals will learn to discern between sensationalized information and the real deal.

So the only people that matter see the reality of the situation. Fags who get their feelings hurt by some anti-creationist rhetoric and big dick swinging scientific elitism are unimportant in the grand scheme of things.

No, I don't consider him an authority, and neither does anyone with any comprehension of logic and credibility.

She called him out because she's a climate change denier, which makes her a literal retard whose opinion isn't worth reading

>>8009952
I saw him give a lecture at ASU on the future of space travel with four people who each had more advanced degrees than him. He distinctly talked over each and even interrupted them several times with little jokes and of course the whole audience (myself included) was like "HAHAHAHAHA THE SCIENCE GUY SAID STUFF"

Anyway, yeah. I agree with>>8010005
Ultimately, he's doing a good thing. He doesn't need to stfu, but someone should put him in his place a bit, just on a personal level.

>>a few fractions of a degree
>>muh major climate change we are all going to die

you realize that global temperature shifting 1 degree is significant right? and that weather is not climate?

like, do you know what it means to affect global temperature? it's not a matter of "we're getting hotter a tiny bit", it's a matter of what cycle we're going through. the earth has 20k+ year- long cycles and the ice age isn't even the biggest part of it. thinking we aren't a detriment is just stupid. you're a memer and a baiter. fucking christ. imagine if people like you said shit like "muh plane is heavier than air can't fly duh", we'd still be going on boats to continents. i hope you choke on air.

Yeah, never mind the links in the points about the relevant studies

So all of this was just so OP could try and shoehorn AGW denier rhetoric into the thread.

This thread is shit. SHUT IT DOWN.

Lie. The only "predictions" given are by Al Gore, a non-scientist, and James Hansen, who made a prediction for 2028. The third point, that arctic sea ice may enter a point of no return, is not a prediction at all.

I actually sympathize with Bill Nye because he's usually trying really hard to be polite and reasonable with people who are complete obnoxious faggots and take pride in ignorance. This is unrelated to AGW.

I think the real shitface is this kraut cunt. He can't shut up with his terrible bad jokes and contant political inserts in the middle of science talks. He just recites other researchers stuff in his books and had zero contributions so far. I thought Neil DeGrasse was bad until I saw this tard.

Watch his complete incompetence and inability to string a single sentence together against very basic questions.
