The End Is Nye

Science can be entertaining. If we are forward thinking and not get stuck in the past we can thrive, become profitable, and help the world. Yes, invest in future science. Because denying facts only leads to being stuck in a narrow existence of unsustainable acts. For example combustion engines will be collector's items for you grandkids, the same way horse and buggy transportation was for your great grandparents. As science takes us back into space on vehicles and machines are needed on the moon and Mars, electric engines or alternative power sources are the only option. Without an atmosphere, a combustion engine will not work.

This show gave me ideas for future investments in myself and businesses.

I love science, I love Bill Nye. What's not to like?

This show is about the upcoming, and possible challenges, and disasters we might face. Will face if we don't act on them soon. While educating people about them, it offers good science without bothering with details too much. At the same time offering solutions to each of those upcoming problems.

The construct of the show is very entertaining, and Bill Nye is charismatic as the host.

Bill Nye is a great science communicator, he has charisma, and educates people, whilst you are being entertained.

I have seen all of Bill Nye's shows, except for the 'Science Guy', so far I have enjoyed each and every single one of them.

Really entertaining and informative series presented in a clear, informative and engaging manner. Mr. Nye does an excellent job. Of course every user review section has the usual suspects who are typical right wing deniers. Ignore them and cross check the show's content with FACTS and EVIDENCE that support the content. The creators of this excellent show aren't making up the urgency of man made global warming. The other natural phenomena, which we may have no control over, are things to ponder indeed and, according to Nye, may be mitigating actions we can institute to survive. As Nye eloquently points out the conditions we, as the human occupants of this planet, can correct and modify are real and should be undertaken if we are to be responsible stewards of this planet...and have a planet for our descendants to flourish.

This documentation of hypothetical disasters is a must. Not just a "give it a try" for entertainment purposes.

It's a serious warning about underestimated threats. While Bill Nye presents these scenarios entertainingly, this does not diminish the seriousness of the dangers he explores.

Take just one realistic example: the "Global Blackout" caused by a super solar flare. Such solar flares happened countless times already. These are called Myake-Events and they occur more than once in a millennium. The big difference nowadays would be the destruction of semiconductors. The last Miyake Event happened in the 19th century and semiconductors hadn't been invented yet, therefore the damage to humanity was limited. It was a shock, but minor damage has been done. Nowadays, such an event would be a global disaster. It could throw the human race back into the Stone Age, causing a complete breakdown of all infrastructure and societal collapse with anarchy taking over. Calling the police would be impossible. In such a world, something as simple as a bottle of water could become a reason to kill.

It is a fact, that it will happen, the only open question is: WHEN? Once in a millennium on average. But the next time would be the most dangerous Miyake Event since mankind has put its fate in the hands of semiconductors. If this isn't concerning to you, I don't k ow what would.

Rebuilding our world to its current state could take centuries perhaps longer, as we have zero experience with such a strike against humanity.

Really loved this show! The simulations are cheesy and full on corny at times, but shows some very cool things!! It's not junk science or propaganda, or "woke" garbage or anything like that, it's entertaining and the science is sound and cool! We need to change our society or we are doomed!! Edutainment at its best as always with Bill Nye, and probably the best thing to come from Seth Macfarlane for a very long time!! Need more of this show, and maybe even touch on man made possible endings!! I don't get the people who left bad reviews on here, they obviously did not watch this show at all!! It is a must watch for any science lover!
