Bill Nye is at it again, this time calling low gasoline prices “Very Bad News” because “Burning more gas means less time to do something about #climatechange.”
Strange as it seems, this is Very Bad News. Burning more gas means less time to do something about #climatechange pic.twitter.com/IbSSqZb3f8

Never change, not-a-scientist guy. But it gets worse, Billy:
1.67 is very bad news indeed, i get it for 1.41 here https://t.co/LjFd1bKUuV

Ha!
Nye is also avoiding the good news in all of this: Taxpayers will save money flying him around the country in CO2-spewing Air Force One!
Heading down to DC to catch an #EarthDay flight on Air Force One tomorrow with the President. We're going to #ActOnClimate.

I spy @EvanMcSan's beard in the photo of Bill Nye taking questions outside Air Force One today. pic.twitter.com/hFO9BsXFPd

And he posted this on Instagram:
Nothing like celebrating Earth Day with jet fuel!
Earlier this month, Nye was on a crusade against gasoline-powered cars in Super Bowl ads:
Super Bowl car ads are charming– but they're all gasoline powered. How 20th Century…. Go EV!

Trucks too– still old
fashioned gasoline propulsion. Following like sheep. We can do better.— Bill Nye (@BillNye) February 8, 2016
But he wasn’t always such a lunatic. Back in December 2010 — when the price at the pump averaged around $3.00/gallon — he at least addressed the technological challenge of getting rid of gasoline:
@GrizzGuy The problem is still the batteries. Gas tanks hold so much energy for their size. Invent a better battery; get rich!
— Bill Nye (@BillNye) December 16, 2010
Since 2010, the batteries aren’t better and gas is almost half the cost. It’s math Bill, not science.
