Bill Gates is forever optimistic


Bill Gates’ optimism must be admired.

Bill Gates - no 'poor countries by 2035.
He and his wife, Melinda, through their Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, have done some wonderful work kin easing the lot of millions of people around the world.

But now, apparently flushed by the foundation’s success and subsequent praise, the billionaire software baron has boldly predicted that the world will be free of poor countries by 2035.

Writing in story headed: “Bill Gates predicts almost no poor countries left by 2035 in annual letter” the ABC reported on his optimism in the Australian Network News.

In discussing riding nations of poverty, Mr Gates’ emphasis appears focussed on a “business-as-usual” paradigm and takes no countenance of the rigours nations of the world will encounter as climate change enlivened weather events, be they droughts, storms, floods and the resultant deterioration of top soil begin to influence outcomes.
