You know when Bill Nye has a serious worried look, it's going to be real bad..

I love how she added he's a national treasure at the end and he's completely caught off guard by that haha...

Bill Nye the science guy! Greatest children's educator of all time...

[marketads]

Thanks, Bill. No one should be afraid of the truth.

The most hurricane landfalls since 1886, how do we explain the record number of hurricanes in 1886? How many hurricanes made landfall in 1350? 1210? 1675?

I just find it funny that we did so much damage to the planet that we have reverted back to praying to the gods to save us -- as if we're back in the 1600's.

The guy who made me love science as a child 😊. He makes incredibly complicated topics so easy to understand. He's the best.

we never had strong hurricanes before bill nye recognized the climate change

[DovioneMcQueen]

Do your research on bill … he is an amazingly smart man.

This is giving me 2012 movie vibes especially how the hurricane grew from basically a baby into a giant in a matter of hours

“Bill Nye the science guy” isn’t a scientist. The level of education Bill has had when it comes to weather is the same as my local car mechanic, which is zilch. Having him on as an expert is ridiculous.

It's related to dumping dry ice.. "Cloud seeding", not climate change.

Unfortunately it’s too late to save the planet now especially when the whole world cannot get on the same page and rather continue polluting and fighting wars instead of saving the only home we have. I don’t see humanity surviving another 500 years. Probably even less than that at this point. Mother Earth will heal herself and survive by exterminating the cancer killing her, which is us.

In Canada we Pay the Government Money to to make the Weather Better its called climate change Tax, And at the end of each Month are PM takes the Climate change Money and Give it to the Weather man that makes the weather happen and tells Him to make the weather Nice and not Bad and its Kinda

In Reality it has Brought up the Cost of Everything.

Only vote for people who take climate change seriously, that's all.💙

NBC reporting, so everyone knows it could be crap?

[jongotti]

Quick fact l, hurricane Katrina formed from the Southwest also but traveled northwest, and also amplified fairly fast

[lainecolley]

Billman was recording preliminaries last time. 🖖🏻

Bill Nye is not a scientist. He was a TV personality who played the "Science Guy" on what was supposed to be an educational TV show. He repeats what script writers write. Big Bird knows more about science than Bill Nye.

NBC needs a new editor. The banner should say "its effect" not "it's effect".
