Quote

Bicycling is a big part of the future. It has to be. There's something wrong with a society that drives a car to work out in a gym.

The US Navy has several people on every ship that can navigate by the stars. They don't fool with that.
Bill Nye
Image
Recommending or insisting on abstinence has been completely ineffective.
Bill Nye
Image
There are two ways to be rich: to have more or need less. It's estimated that we squander about 30 percent of our energy leaving the lights on, the refrigerator door open, and so on. Then there is the enormous amount of food that we expend huge amounts of energy to raise and then throw away.
Bill Nye
Image
Winter lingered so long in the lap of Spring that it occasioned a great deal of talk.
Bill Nye
Image
When or if answers are found, you can be assured those answers will lead to more questions. Is the troubling or wonderful? It depends on your view of your place in nature, your place among the stars I suppose.

The most serious problem facing humankind is climate change.
Bill Nye
Image
That's what makes a human a human, if we store information outside our bodies.
Bill Nye
Image
I understand that you take the Bible, as written in English, translated many many times over the last three millennia as to be a more accurate, more reasonable assessment of the natural laws we see around us than what I and everybody in here can observe. That, to me, is unsettling.

Humor is everywhere in that there's irony in just about anything a human does.
Bill Nye

To leave the world better than you found it, sometimes you have to pick up other people's trash.
Bill Nye
Image
The oncoming trouble I speak of is climate change. It's going to affect all of you in the same way the Second World War consumed people of my parent's generation.
Bill Nye
Image
I hope climate science becomes the big thing. And then what I want is electrical engineers to solve the world's energy problems, energy distribution problems. I want mechanical engineers to make better transportation systems. I want chemical engineers to develop better solar panels, and so on.
Bill Nye
Image
Science is the key to our future, and if you don't believe in science, then you're holding everybody back.
Bill Nye
Image
I meet so many people who are intimidated by arithmetic.
Bill Nye

America has had many other discoverers besides Columbus, but he seems to have made more satisfactory arrangements with the historians than any of the others.

Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don't.

I stand by my assertions that although you can know what happens to any individual species that you modify, you cannot be certain what will happen to the ecosystem. Also, we have a strange situation where we have malnourished fat people. It's not that we need more food. It's that we need to manage our food system better.

From an evolutionary standpoint you can't just wipe everything out and start over, and I don't think you can do it in the school system either.
Bill Nye
Image
Promoting a religious agenda that is to apply to every citizen is inconsistent with our laws in the US. It seems to me that your community and mine can live and work together without conflict.

I tell personal stories associated with aspects of the theory, and I hope they are interesting and compelling. I don't feel you're going to change a grownup's mind in one reading. People have to be exposed to scientific ideas over and over again for years. It's also not a textbook.
