UPDATE:
Morano emailed me from his phone just before the interview started @925PM :
I was literally only informed of Nye backing out 6 min. before segment to begin by CNN producer.
yet somehow they found a Sierra Club guy Michael Brune, who instead of debating factually, immediately launched a “big oil” smear campaign claiming Marc’s Climate Depot is funded by Chevron. What a lamer.

Round Two! CFACT’s Marc Morano vs. Bill Nye the Science Guy
tonight on CNN
Last month, CFACT’s Marc Morano debated global warming with Bill Nye the Science Guy on CNN. This evening, Piers Morgan has invited them both back for another round.
Piers Morgan show, CNN 9 PM EST tonight (Wednesday)
Global warming alarmists rarely agree to public debates, so I hope you have a chance to tune in, as it promises to be exciting!

Ding ding…
i suspect that Bill Nye the Science Wannabe Guy has been schooled since his last beatdown…
If Piers didn’t think Nye was prepped, there would not be a round #2
From Bill Nyes Wiki page…
Is it just me being old & cynical but, rarely do individuals develop anything in an organisation like Boeing? Are they just bigging him up?
DaveE.
Maybe I’m too cynical — but why would they not fix the debate — knowing they will lose a fair debate?
The facts seem to tell the opposite story to the preferred narrative — so what do you do when you have a point to make??? Help the truth come out? I think not!
Hydraulic resonance suppressor? You mean a shock absorber?
What’s the over/under as to how long before Nye starts shouting ad homs??
This will be a liberal two on one fight… and the media will be heavily biased to Nye the idiot..
Dave;
I’m not riding to Nye’s rescue here, but you’d be surprised how much a company the size of Boeing would let one guy design. . . especially that long ago.
Win by default.
sciene 2-0 warmists
You think the Sierra guy Michael Brune has been hibernating for sometime now that he has not heard of this idol Al Gore working with big oil ( not companies but big oil states).
Obama to Bill Nye. You didn’t build that Hydraulic resonance suppressor!
Nye exits and a hack enters… that make two hacks against a scientist.. they must like failing..
Breaking News! Bill Nye the Science Guy loses his marbles. Blames denialists.
As for Michael Brune: When you can’t attack the argument, attack the person.
WOW they really gave Morano a lot of time. Did he get to answer more than 1 question?…
Video is now posted of my CNN ‘debate’: http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2013/01/24/pmt-climate-change-marc-morano-michael-brune.cnn
The sierra club is lying !
Morano makes a good and here is the right link to the debate!

Morano did a good job!

The CNN video of the segment rather conveniently cuts off before Marc has a chance to respond to Brune. Talk about media bias! No doubt CNN/Morgan will spin it to try and refute that.
Note also how Brune links together sound-bites to make them look like scientific facts, but don’t be fooled. He even thinks the ‘green’ mitigation actions that are supposed to have already happened have reduced CO2 levels (not that CO2 is a problem), but the fact is that it’s the switch from coal to gas that has done it, nothing else, except perhaps depressed economic activity, but certainly not ‘clean’, i.e. renewable energy, So what is it Brunie, is gas clean or dirty? You can’t have it both ways.
The Sierra Club secretly took $26 million from the fossil fuel industry to back gas. What hypocrites!

Now they are against natural gas. They now call it “Dirty, dangerous, and run amok”

Brune – credibility = ZERO. What a parrot! Does he have anything intelligent to say, other than simply to spew out the same old rehearsed deflective responses. “Science is settled” (refuse to debate/discuss). “You’re not a climate scientist” (double standards) “Blog is funded by Chevron and big oil” (outright lie to smear)…..You are a BORE Mr. Brune. I’ll wet my pants with excitement the day when a warmist and realist actually debate the SCIENCE.
Did he seriously say ” the science is settled”? What kind of person takes that phrase to an honest debate these days?
The warmists have nothing but lies and logical fallacies.
my favorite part was when the sierra club person was claiming that US emmisions had gone down due to alternative energy and Marc M corrected him by saying it was because of fracking. I think Mr Morano came across very well – nice job!
Brune says “he’s not a climate scientist”. Brune has a BS degrees in Economics and Finance, according to Greenpeace. Is Brune disqualifying his own opinion in the matter?
