ast month, during a
trip to Europe, I mentioned that I plan to invest $1 billion in clean energy
technology over the next five years.
 |
| Bill Gates - he will invest a billion dollars to spur innovation. |
This will be a fairly big increase over the investments I am
already making, and I am doing it because I believe that the next half-decade
will bring many breakthroughs that will help solve climate change. As I argued
in this 2010 TED talk, we need to be able to power all sectors of the economy
with sources that do not emit any carbon dioxide.
But when it comes to preventing the worst effects of climate
change, the investments I make will matter much less than the choices that
governments make. In Europe I got to talk about these choices with several
political leaders, and in this post I want to share the steps that I encouraged
them to take.
Read what Bill Gates has to say about innovation - “We Need Clean-Energy Innovation, and Lots of It”.
