Get rid of the multi-thousand square foot lakeside mansion and the dozens of polluting jet-skis and motor boats, then get back to me Bill.

The billionaire philanthropist offers four bold ideas to help business take on the climate crisis
----
[cut]
It took me years to come to this point of view. I became interested in climate change not as an environmentalist, but as an advocate for global health and development.
Since the early 2000s, my wife Melinda and I have been funding efforts to improve health and fight poverty in lower- and middle-income countries. A few times a year, I would travel abroad for the chance to see the work in action. Often, I’d fly into a country at night and be struck by the immensity of the darkness. A billion people, I learnt, did not have access to reliable electricity. Around half of them lived in sub-Saharan Africa. (Today the global number is about 860m people.)
It became obvious that it would be virtually impossible to make real inroads on disease and poverty when more than one in 10 people on Earth did not have reliable access to all the benefits of energy — lights for schools and health clinics, transportation between work and home, fertiliser for crops, even air-conditioning to withstand rising temperatures.
But achieving a modern lifestyle depends on fossil fuels. And the problem is simple: we can’t afford to release more greenhouse gases. In fact, we need to stop releasing them altogether, and do it by 2050.

Gates has a massive carbon footprint. If he wants change, it should start with him. He should be challenged to reduce his carbon footprint to the size of the average American.
Shove your “green manifesto” dweeb!
He seems desirous of doing a penitence dance to aswage his guilt.
And just what did bill hates do on the seventh day. They need a re-education course for just plain stupidity, you can’t rationalize it billy.
He has purchased huge amounts of American land, this tells me if you read agenda 21 the UN globalists manifesto, after depopulation the remainder of the population will be herded into the cities for better control. Don’t believe me read about it
Climate crisis is the next big control-by-fear.
Shut up, Gates!
The world is freezing and you want to put stuff in the atmosphere that BLOCKS THE SUN?
You are INSANE and STUPID!
That would be a Saturday per Bill's Excel function =WEEKDAY(2/20/2021) He probably plays golf. Year one starts January 1, 1900, with no valid dates before that.
Stick to computers Bill.
A hypocrite in so many ways.
Get rid of the multi-thousand square foot lakeside mansion and the dozens of polluting jet-skis and motor boats, then get back to me Bill.
A lying and delusional hypocrite.
And yet Gates wants to continue with his private jet (a 787?)...and his 25,000 sq foot mansions...and his Rolls Royce limos...and his 76 degrees in winter and 72 degrees in summer...while I commute to work on a pogo stick,vacation in my back yard and turn on the heat 2 hours a day and the A/C 1 hour a day?
Exactly! I like Windows 7...and Excel....and Word...and Outlook. I have no use for his opinions on medicine...vaccines...climate...or anything else.
Billy boy want to be Emperor of Gang Green. To cut to the chase, the agenda is most of us dead, the rest of us in chains and the Gang Green higher-ups leading a life of warmth and luxury. They should all be decorating lamp posts.
“The craziest part is that they think we can control the climate.
The number of variables involved, many unknown, creates an amazingly complex algorithm that no one knows.”
It’s pseudoscience.
He needs to go play shuffle board.
“Climate crisis is the next big control-by-fear.”
Yes. And religion.
MOVE to your own island, Gates. Take with you whomever you wish. Tim McGraw & Faith Hill have a nice set up for sale that you can well afford.
Stay the hell out of the problems of the world.
YOU ARE NOT HELPING.
