Bill Nye 'the Science Guy' visits Durham to promote Harris-Walz campaign's climate platform

Science educator and TV personality Bill Nye spoke in Durham Monday to promote the Harris-Walz campaign’s climate agenda.

Harris for President and N.C. Democrats hosted Nye at the campaign’s Durham headquarters, where he addressed a venue of around 50 supporters.

Nye explained that he used to view the 2000 presidential election between Democratic nominee Al Gore and Republican nominee George W. Bush as “the most important election of [his] lifetime” because Gore’s strong climate platform would have likely spurred aggressive policy action. However, he now views 2024 as the last year where meaningful climate action is possible.

“This is it, people,” Nye said. “If we don’t do something about climate change this time, it ain’t gonna get done.”
