I love Bill Nye. No he’s not sexy and ‘Dancing with the Stars proved he has no rhythm. Still the guy takes no guff and isn’t the least bit afraid to put his money where his mouth is.

This time a bodybuilding weather man named Joe Bastardi threw the gauntlet for Bill to prove his assertion that the earth is warming and there is a connection to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and global climate when according to Joe it is cooling down.

Well Bill does just that and then poses a wager of his own to the tune of $20,000. Will Joe take the wager and ultimately show whose brain is the real muscle?? Not so much. Come on Joe I say man up.

In case you missed it, bodybuilder and meteorologist Joe Bastardi challenged one of the Internet’s favorite personalities, Bill Nye The Science Guy, to prove there is a connection to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and global climate.

Bill Nye answered the challenge with a bet of $20,000 that he’s right and Joe is wrong. Will Joe accept?
