"Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we cannot eat money". ~Chief Seattle

Floridians : Who cares if ocean levels are rising? Also Floridians: Why is my home insurance going up 400%?

No matter how unused your car is or how ethically you eat, the common person doesn’t do this much damage.

I like the ending when he says “We can do this people” finally someone who will speak out and not care what people think

We could do something about it but shareholder value is more important than human lives.

I used to live in a very cold, winter climate-- now I live in a warm winter climate. That change happened VERY rapidly. Here, up north, you can see the change with your own eyes.

I love that he explains things like we’re still in elementary school. He never lost that teaching touch

I’ll never stop loving how when he explains something I AWAYS understand, he’s so good at explaining confusing topics in the most basic way

I’m surprised Bill is still alive. I used to watch him in elementary school with my teachers on PBS. Wish him to live a long and happy life. Man, he brings back nostalgia 😞.

Mother nature is cleaning house. It's too late. We were terrible to this planet.

Thank you for letting him speak. Other networks, while just curious, tend to interrupt him often.

The media keeps treating this issue as if it's a result of not enough people being warned about the global warming crisis to resolve it. We're collectively already so desensitized to scientists sounding the alarm that this achieves nothing. We need to come up with ways of disassembling the oil industry so that this planet can move on. That's our only path forward to liberate this plant from fossil fuels.

Scientists have been warning about this FOR YEARS!

I am an older research physicist and have been following the science of climate change carefully since the early 1980s. The seriousness of the problem has been obvious and certain for at least 20 and perhaps 30 years, yet many in the public have been led to believe that there is significant uncertainty in the reality and seriousness of the problem. As the rate of change increases, there will be shifts in agricultural production areas that will disrupt food production and water use. Migration away from areas made uninhabitable by climate change will create huge immigration problems in Europe and the US, politically destabilizing both. And acidification of the oceans by dissolved CO2 will make life increasingly difficult for shellfish, among other things. Finally, sea level rise over the next century or two will inundate much of the coastal infrastructure in the world, an area encompassing much of the investment of our civilization. This is a serious problem, and must be dealt with. As a scientist, I always say that the most charming thing about Nature is that she doesn't care what you believe or what you want. We have to deal with it as it is presented to us, and it is not pretty.

Winters have definitely felt warmer than they used to be. Still cold but not as much

If the ocean is rising, why are big banks still investing along the coast?

What is it going to take for people to understand this???

It's amazing how different winter is this year from just 2 years ago.

So if adding freshwater to the ocean doesn’t sink but gets evaporated- won’t the issue be more about severe weather patterns not the ocean level rising?

We get this “very serious” problem every year

We already have spring temperatures over here in Belgium, when it should still be freezing. I can remember the harsh winters from 30 years ago.

I live in New Jersey and the ground doesn't freeze in the winter like it did back in the 60's and 70's hell most of the lakes don't freeze enough to skate on.

They keep warning us about this, but never tell us what needs to be done or where to start.

I like that he explains it in a way that anyone, even a kid, could understand

i live in central Canada, a place during the winters that usually would get LOTS of snow Lots of snow, and bitter cold, insanely cold. this year we've had almost no snow. Temperatures so warm most days you could wear sweaters outside. I'm 45 years old. Never have i ever experienced this here ever. its going to be one smokey summer.

I reckon we had a good run.

Ive lived in montan for 30 years, the change had been noticeable for a decade, and the last few years have been drastically different over the winter. It was 55 degrees at 2 am in February last year in montana at one point. Thats not normal

Hitting home? What exactly do you think can be done about it?

Meanwhile, America's emmission regulations mean that our beloved pickup trucks can't be any smaller than a tank...

At 68 I'm on the verge of elderly and could never have kids. In some ways I'm grateful for that. But I've done my part. I still ride a bicycle most places and keep the heat to a minimum, wearing a winter coat in the house. I try not to eat beef. Besides voting, I'm not sure what else to do. Sit back and watch the show I guess.

What up bill!!! My man still spreading knowledge. My little man brain loved him. I love to see u still fighting the good fight. Thank u for sharing when i was younger at school. I was always happy to see him.

February in southern Wisconsin here and there is no snow on the ground and temps are in the forties with 50s forecast for next few days. The first tornado ever in Wisconsin in February touched down here in the town of Evansville. It was bad enough but it would've been a helluva lot worse had it gone through the more densely populated area of the town. Hang onto your hats Sconnies, it's going to be an interesting spring!

Thanks for having Bill on. So many more need this explanation in their heads. Once delivered then it is up to each of us to act accordingly. Sadly, there are many who can no longer care.

No ice means no reflection of heat away from the surface.

I miss the days in elementary school where we got to watch him! He made me love science, High School made me hate all subjects.

“we must stand together to confront companies destroying our planet”.

Ice fishermen and skiers can tell you things are warming up.

No one is listening. We need to get people to listen.

It’s already too late. All we can do is wait at this point

Sounds like to me it's that little something we've always called "weather".

Great Lakes never froze this year. Ground really never froze much either. We have yet to understand how that will effect plants, trees, insects, fish and wildlife. If people and industry do not change quickly, Mother Nature will do it for them over night.

I live in Minnesota and we don't have any snow...

All that needs to be done is tell the big companies to stop what they are doing. Done....

It’s 23 in TN right now it’s usually much warmer so everyone chill, the climate is moving not leaving

he didn't even mention the albedo effect, brown and green reflects a lot less sunlight than white snow

Mar a Largo will have a new look ! You'll just need a glass bottom boat to view it

Anyone else when they seen Bill just started singing his intro "Bill Bill Bill" 😂

So glad Bill is still around! Great guy.

For improved understanding, the metric ought not be 'square miles', but in cubic measure, since we're talking volume, or else, perhaps in mass. The prophetic suggestion for me was a scientist of Indian background on PBS about 20 years ago, advising that the melting of ice was sustaining our fragile, collapsing equilibrium. Since then, multiple studies have found that Greenland and Antarctic glaciers have been melted from the underside via warm water contact, resulting in accelerating rates of seaward movement of the glaciers.

Bill Nye is a fascinating person. Comments on here that he’s not a scientist led me to deep dive. *A scientist is someone who systematically gathers and uses research and evidence, to make hypotheses and test them, to gain and share understanding and knowledge*. Definition by Science Council. He has an Engineering Degree & fits the definition of a Scientist.

See, the way I see it is that we should 100% do what Bill says and talk about it. I have a big feeling the United States can come up with a way to reduce this little by little. Maybe we can get other countries to start doing it.

It’s funny, nobody wants to say it, YOU GOT TO STOP SHOPPING!!!❤

We trusted him when we were kids and ignoring him now that were adults

Bill Nye has been taking us to school for over 30 years. That is rare in this world. I wish we had more like him, but am damn proud to have him in this timeline.

I don't care how old I get I will always listen to Bill. He can be trusted in my house.💙

Thank u Bill u have warned us all and I appreciate it and always have learned a lot from u since I was a kid watching your shows. Unfortunately we live in country that doesn’t care about humanity. They only care about money and they think they will make more of it by voting for the guy that is known for taking advantage of people for their money. 😖

If the vast majority of the world's population hasn't figured this out yet, it never will. Mr. Nye and MANY others have been screaming for decades. And, for ANYONE who has any sense of awareness, the evidence has been in our faces for a VERY long time. But...most people in power and an unfortunate percentage of the general population simply don't care, and...never will. Enjoy it all while it's possible.

We will ACT when it’s to LATE ‼️

Why are they telling the public. They won’t and can’t do anything. It’s the corporations and the government that needs to do something

My parents live in a small town in CO. They may not get enough snowfall this year to sustain the town's fresh water needs through the summer. Every year it gets worse and worse.

We're like frogs in the slowly heating pot of water....

*_Thiiis is craaaaaazy!_* *_We are near the end times indeed!_*

hopefully the structure is solid so it won’t be many slides

alarm? the house is on fire, the alarm was 30 years ago

In Minnesota here. We did not get any snow at all this winter.

Not taking away from severity, but how does he explain how all the beaches on long island have remained in the same place from 1980 until now.

Wow ice turning back into water what a fucking shock to the world

Nature: “Time to adapt again” Humans: “But, we’re so comfy 🥺”

We the common people need to be more informed and more involved.

I doubt this "hits home" until it actually hits home

How long ago was that Al Gore movie? Let’s grow up.

In Switzerland our glaciers are melting too. The Maldives islands are disappearing because the ocean levels are rising. It’s terrible how we humans are killing our planet.

We have known this for quite some time. Talk to us more about potential solutions. Americans need at least as much education about solutions as we do about the effects and impacts of climate change. This news is important, but it’s 1 side of a multifaceted approach to education, for which we’ve loved Bill for decades. ❤️

Why compare the size to a size of a city multiplied? Who is the audience, a kindergarden? The square meters of land, or cubic meters of volume involved, is enough.

Man yall better listen to Bill. He been preaching this for years. Plus, it's Bill Nye the science guy!

At the moment water temperatures are up 5-8 degrees at the cape point/Cape Town South Africa. Normal 11-13 degrees celcius now recent days up to 21 degrees. Local weather patterns are changing by this.

He educated us in the 90s and we failed him... He is such a nice grandpa who wants to yell at us but doesn't... Instead he tries to explain it to us like we are 10... Cuz we act like we are 5. I'm sorry Bill 😢

It's the giant corporations and governments who need to be held accountable. The meager pleabians can't do much tbh.

Not the sea level thing again.... The sea has literally risen at strict consistent rate since we started measuring in 1880.

Antarctica just lost a piece of ice a month ago bigger than the state of Rhode Island. Also, they are finding Viking artifacts under the ice in Greenland. There wasn't much ice when the Viking were there.

Sad that people think things are ok now so why worry about the future. I have a 4 year old grandson and I worry for him, things are going to be so much more complicated for him. It breaks my heart. I often wonder if any of the politicians have children, or grand children. And I always wonder why people really want to keep polluting instead of trying to be more green and do less harmful things to our world sad

We need to get to work…meanwhile, so many people drive themselves to work or shopping in their oversized SUVs and pickups as a vanity for themselves alone

Yeah, but you know none of us is going to do a damn thing about it.

Who just came here for the nostalgia? I want to watch all the original BNTSG now!

Some experts say the ice is melting others say we are entering another ice age. "The sky is falling the sky is falling" is an expression that is a couple thousand years old.

The insurance industry is a for profit sector. So, politics does not come into picture. They are pulling out of coastal states or raising home insurance rates drastically. That is why home insurance prices are going to the roof in some states. Very soon half of Florida will be under water.

In Minnesota we're currently experiencing the warmest winter on record. Whole industries that depend on winter for their income are in serious financial trouble.

It's been this way in the Southern US. We used to be pretty consistent with 80s in the summer, 40s in the winter, with an occasional heatwave or arctic plummet. Nowadays, you're gonna bet we have a 100+ heatwave every year as well as a full arctic blast. What so many don't understand is that food insecurity in mass is what people are going to have to contend with. My area is already getting hit hard by these extreme temperatures. It's harmful to agriculture in a huge way

Okay now make this go viral

I agree "..we can do this" maybe 20 - 30 years ago. Now, I doubt it. There is just not enough will to make the necessary sacrifices.

From the Netherlands … we’re are terrified the American ppl will vote for the orange cult leader. Please don’t!

Unfortunately people just don’t care and never did until it affects their pockets

That’s why we’re heating up and that’s why we’re losing our polar ice

climate change is heartbreaking 😢

Why isn’t this covered every evening on network national news? They cover individual storms, but never show the big picture. It’s like covering the sinking of the Titanic by saying “huh, now another stateroom has flooded, but nothing to worry about folks”

I love Bill Nye, watched him since elementary. Good memories ❤🙌🙏

I wonder if all this affects the weather too? Because we’ve had some bizarre weather the past few years. The one I think of the most is The Great Texas Freeze in 2021. I think that was the closest example you can get to the quote “when Hell freezes over”

This man literally raised me... I hope people will listen to him!
