When Carlson asked Nye to what degree human activity is causing climate change, Nye refused to answer. Instead he went on a lengthy, meandering diatribe about dinosaurs and the Ice Age.
“I’m asking you a simple question about the rate of climate change,” Carlson said. “I’m asking you a simple question and because, since the science is settled, I hope you can answer it in simple terms, which is: without human activity, how long would it have taken for us to reach this level of warmth in our climate.”
“It’s not clear that it would have happened,” Nye said. “Humans have changed the climate so drastically there would have been another ice age, but that’s ain’t gonna happen because of you and me.”
