Bill Nye The Science Guy is a cultural icon, and it was my honour to award him the Richard Dawkins 2023 award at CSICON for his exemplary work in making scientific knowledge more accessible. We spoke about everything from life in outer space, to climate change, to improving governance and the quality of life on earth - and how creating a scientifically literate society is, truly, the key.

That is the epitome of absurdity. Bill Nye is an actor! Bill Nye has exactly ZERO education in Science and exactly zero earned scientific credentials. That's like giving Barrack Obama the Nobel Peace Prize. That's like propping up Zelensky as President of Ukraine, because he was a popular ACTOR who PRETENDED to be a President in some dumb broadcast production.

Bill Nye thinks women are men. I don’t really care for anything he has to say after that. Can’t trust him.
