Bill Nye at Crooked Media Tells Young Voters “If You’re On the Fence, Get Off It”
Washington, D.C. – Bill Nye The Climate Guy continued barnstorming the country to make the case that climate is on the ballot, joining Crooked Media’s “Lovett or Leave It” and “What A Day” podcasts to preview his latest video as part of the “Too Hot Not to Vote” campaign with Climate Power.

I don't have an option that I want, I have a choice between the status quo (which we know is leading us into bad places) and actively making things worse.
