He is a "science popularizer", that is, one who writes or lectures about scientific topics for the lay public.  In this regard he is similar to such past and contemporary popularizers as [[Humphrey Davy]], [[Michael Faraday]], [[Arthur Eddington]], [[Isaac Asimov]], [[Carl Sagan]], and [[Neil deGrasse Tyson]].  Some of these people were/are notable scientists in their own right;  Mr. Nye is not.

Perhaps because of the way he has dealt with his fame, Mr. Nye sometimes exhibits bad judgment in making statements out of his known field of expertise, or says things in an overly theatrical way, that may seem silly when viewed as purely scientific statements.  He has recently developed an exaggerated and flamboyant speaking style, to a degree that many traditional scientists may find distasteful.  Some examples of this will be given below.
