Bill Nye, the hands-on scientist and TV host who’s equally well known these days for his environmental activism, continues to sound the alarm on climate change in a new PSA for the United Nations. 

Staying fully on brand, he doesn’t mince words in this short film.

“Nature is showing us that humankind is on the verge of a breakdown,” he says against images of fires, floods, hurricanes, deforestation and pollution. “At least one million plant and animal species are likely to disappear—soon!”

His urgent voiceover talks of mass extinction and the fragility of life, along with the need to “show our leaders why nature matters” and “ensure we have a future.”
