'Stuff Happens' when Nye joins Discovery

Ten years after Bill Nye the Science Guy ended its run, the "Science Guy" returns to television on Tuesday, Sept. 2 with the premiere of Stuff Happens on the Discovery Channel's recently-launched Planet Green network.

Nye said Stuff Happens focuses on an "eco-lifestyle" 24 hours a day -- from the choices consumers make to how they unexpectedly can affect people, animals and ecosystems all over the world.
"We're trying to get people to be aware of how they affect the environment, especially consumers," Nye said. "The choices you make as a consumer can affect everybody in the whole world."

Since the end of Bill Nye the Science Guy, Nye has hosted programs such as The 100 Greatest Discoveries for Discovery Channel and won an Emmy for his Greatest Inventions with Bill Nye. He also will be appearing in a November episode of Sci-Fi's Stargate Atlantis as himself.
