Bill Nye the Science Guy: ‘We Can Invent Our Way Out of Climate Change’
Celebrity scientist Bill Nye believes humanity can “invent” its way out of climate change.
Nye’s new book, Unstoppable: Harnessing Science to Change the World, debuted on Tuesday and describes advances that can undo the damage done to the environment by greenhouse gases.
One of his theories includes bigger, better, and more efficient batteries, which could store larger amounts of electricity and produce less waste. Another, the use of micro-bubbles — similar to the “shade balls” used in California reservoirs to prevent water loss during the drought — to make lakes and ponds reflect sunlight back into space and cool the planet.
