There have been 'news' stories appearing around the interwebs about Bill Nye, the Science Guy, debating Word Salad Sarah on the subject of Climate Change. Weeelllll, not exactly......
Here's what's actually happening: The Koch Bros, Exxon-Mobil, et al, the usual suspects in climate denial, have funded a 'documentary': Climate Hustle (You can just tell from the title that it's going to be a "fair and balanced" look at the issue of climate change, can't you?). The producer is Marc Morano, who has quite a resume (rap sheet) as a climate denier. The debut presentation will be accompanied by a 'panel discussion,' including clips of Bill Nye talking to Morano.
According to the Patheos blog: No, Bill Nye is Not Debating Sarah Palin on Climate Change:
Oh, you did catch that the House Science, Space and Technology Committee is headed up by a notorious climate denialist, didn't you?
Back to Patheos:
Here's a brief video of the discussion, from Bill Nye's YouTube Channel:
Of course, expect to see some clever editing of Bill's comments.
