  • Declining prices for devices to generate and store renewable energy are great, but not nearly enough to save the world from climate change, according to Bill Gates.
    Gates talked about overly optimistic thinking, natural gas, a carbon tax and the responsibilities of developing economies vs. developed economies. He was hopeful, however, that the power of research and innovation could meet rising energy demand globally while addressing climate change and other environmental challenges.

      Because it was pre industry, and regulatory capture. Once deregulated, courts can not look at that chemical as a source, or accept evidence that mentions it.
      This is why it went from CFCs to carbon and co2. They are the only factors of the equasion that are not protected by deregulation. Spray cans often say "no CFCs" yet the ingredients list things like Hexachlora- tetrafluora etc.. The second it is released from the can, it WILL immediately bind to carbons or oxygens (including co2) and make dioxins, CFCs etc. They wreak havock on all systems, from ozone layer, to biological organisms.

      You really should do research on how he founded Microsoft. He stole Windows from Xerox and Job stole the hardware from Xerox as well. They both worked for Xerox's innovation department in the 60s and realized that Xerox didn't see the value in what their co-workers had created, so they stole what their co-workers had developed because Xerox didn't care and they created their own companies. They even admitted it when Jobs said Gates stole his ideas in the 80s when they became arch enemies after being friends and working together to steal from Xerox. Its insane how few people know this about Bill Gates. He is not a genius but he pays everyone to treat him like he is a genius. But, now that he is ruined, people are more open to seeing the truth, especially since he said it himself that he stole from Xerox....
      When Jobs accused Gates of stealing the idea, he famously answered: "Well, Steve, .”

    This man is highly invested in Monsanto, the leading producer of genetically modified crop seed. They produce large numbers of seeds which contain the exact same patented genome. Theses seeds are the most commonly used by the majority of farmers. Not only do the plants that grow NOT produce any seeds (so the farmers need to purchase seeds each year) , but evolutionarily, the plants have been stripped of their adaptability the they had gained through thousands of years of evolutionary pressures. One fungus could cause every Monsanto soybean plant to die. Doesn't sound like he has much forethought at all. This man is a narcissistic sociopath who thinks he is so much better than the avg person and therefore, mistakenly, thinks his answers are the always the right one. Ironic considering the only field in which he has any related knowledge, which is computers, he had to misappropriate his partners ideas in order to succeed in the first place

    Thorium Salt breeder that is driven by a particle accelerator.:
    Just a stainless steel vessel for thorium chloride, A particle accelerator hits a target to make neutrons to breed thorium with a neutron slowing salt moderator. It is down at low pressure for operation. I don't know if Protactinium-233 would make enough heat to keep the molten salt hot and run a small 1MW carbon dioxide cycle generator. But if so it could be a breeder that makes energy from breeding thorium rather than consuming U233 witch could be used in other MSR burners. But that may be a pipe dream. But why didn't Bill Gates invest in focus fusion when he had the chance.

Today the same system cost 0.1 million and which is giving 8 hours back up. I really do not understand when bill gate say the system is not reliable. it is getting better , he should be know how the computing got better and reliable every day dam year. Ok i agree that co2 is not going to be zero by going renewable completely but it is good start in that direction.

    10:28 "There is no substitute for how the industrial economy runs today", I believe the move towards other "global health concerns you might have heard about recently" strategies were likely born out of Bill's perception that the Climate Crisis campaign has been too slow, flailing and waning.

      It seems that these technologies have turned out to be faddish... however, it wasn't due to the fault or defectiveness of the technology. It was due to the non-existent maintenance contracts, which would have tied each sale, to a local plumbing or solar company, to perform whatever service and maintenance was required. Electro-mechanical devices DO eventually wear out, but if even ONE important part malfunctions, it would have detrimental effects on the system, or could even prevent it from working. (In this comment, I am writing about individual home-sized hot water solar systems, which included custom-made hot water storage tanks, flat plate collectors, pumps, sensors,, and the pipes to plumb them into a system. I am pointing out a huge shortfall of forward-thinking ideas, about the need to maintain and check out these systems, on a regular basis... (so that the new technologies avoid becoming just another fad.) Bill seems not to realize that a nuclear power plant takes 20 years to build... which will bring it online TOO LATE, and who wants spewing nuclear Fukishima-like, or Chernobyl-like contamination? HELL NO ! No Nukes ! No Nukes ! No more Uranium mining ! No more "depleted Uranium" keep that stuff IN THE GROUND ! AWAY FROM PEOPLE ~!

European Lithium is aiming to become the first producer of sustainable battery-grade lithium hydroxide in Europe, by developing the Wolfsberg Lithium Project, supplying an integrated European battery supply chain, located only 270km from Vienna, Austria. Recently, Britain had originally planned to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel-powered cars from 2040, as part of efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and in February Johnson brought this forward to 2035. Citing unidentified industry and government figures, the FT said Johnson now intended to move the date forward again to 2030 in a speech on environmental policy. This is great news for the comany.

    The idea that renewable energy is not the solution and we should bet on nuclear power instead is weird. Renewable energy is so much cheaper than nuclear power. In Denmark - where I live - we will get to zero-emission electricity within the next decade. We are already at 135 gram CO2 / KWh due to renewable energy - that 7.5 times better than places in the US. And Denmark has some of the cheapest electricity in the world. The storage problem will be solved using PtX tech, it will be expensive, but not nuclear power expensive.

    Using Bill's own words then saying Africa needs to do whatever it needs to do coupled with his statements that nuclear power with the improved designs of today using low pressure is the answer, not wind or solar, wouldn't you then embark on building nuclear power plants in Africa to match his "do whatever is needed" statement?
    Also, since he acknowledges the growth of China and India and what appears to be their "Industrial Revolution", and their impending damage to the environment, then wouldn't it make more sense to concentrate efforts there and make them do things to "not" damage the environment "now" rather than later which the Paris Peace Accord allows them to do. Our "industrial Revolution" lacked the R&D and awareness of the damage we were doing to to the environment at the time. That was then. This is now and China and India have no such excuse. The United States has made huge strides and accomplished much since the 70's to correct and address these issues. Hell, I remember when cars only got 15-16 mpg and in major cities clean air was a major problem. You could not see downtown LA because of air pollution. Not so today. What happened ? We must have done something right over the years and the American people should not be made pay for the rest of the world's refusal to shoulder the cost of doing this alone. Again, more is known today about environmental impacts due to industrilization by the rest of the world than was known during our own, so simply, why aren't they doing something about it? I would also ask what Europe is doing to further this cause as i already know, very little..

      @@Meatchop Nuclear can be used for most others. It generates a lot of heat that is wasted otherwise. Use for industrial process heat. It can reliably generate massive amounts of energy. Use things like HTE for hydrogen generation, and Fischer-Tropsch to create synthetic hydrocarbons, methane, gasoline etc. Store them. Use the gas storage to run in load following gas turbines to allow reactors to be 100% on all the time as they like. Use the gasoline, diesel or jet fuel in cars, ships, planes etc.

      We never needed nuclear energy.
      We never asked for it.
      They just started to use this technology and trough it we enjoy a lot of electricity.
      Who knows what would have happend if there would be no nuclear power plants. Maybe we wouldnt spire out of control like we do now and would life more simple with less electricity.
      Nevertheless, we wouldnt be less happy because of this.
      Now that everything needs a lot of energy, we cannot get away from it in a fast way. Its now difficult to stop it, because the energy demands are just too high.
      Anyway: Point being. We never should have started to build these nuclear power plants. Humans make errors and in case of nuclear, errors are problematic for future generations to come. Not to speak of all that waste that they need to carry deep down in some cavern.
      Nuclear Power never is and was justified. Its just all about that shitty money.

      Fusion yes, fission... There is tradeoff. We have to acknowledge the Murphy's law, as long as there is a non-zero chance a catastrophy result can happent, IT will happen (given enough time). We have seen Chernobyl and Fukushima, it was bad... Add the fact that we have been utter shit in disposing nuclear waste, I would argue against Nuclear Fission Plants.
      Now, of course there will always be risk associated with everything. We know that there is non-zero chance for an airplane to drop from the sky no matter how sophisticated and safe flying is, yet we still use them because we understand that the tradeoff from being able to transport or travel is worth it. I simply think the environment catastrophy from a nuclear fallout is not worth it.

    Meat is only about 2% total of GHG emissions, and the majority of that emissions is Methane, which lasts about 12 years in the atmosphere, compared to carbon which is 1000+ years. This is according to the IPCC. There are some farms that are actually carbon-saving when it comes to cows. Additionally, go look at crop lands - they’re basically deserts which are devoid of ANY life other than the crop (mostly soy, wheat, corn - the stuff that gets us sick and the stuff that nearly all processed food contains). Ruminants actually improve soil organic matter content, water retention, and carbon storage. Impossible burger and beyond meats is absolute garbage when it comes to health, and unfortunately, any type of climate change solution they’re proposing accounts for ELIMINATING cows from the landscape-which will destroy our already awful grasslands and our largest carbon sinks (more so than forests). He’s absolutely right on the nuclear and battery storage, but is BLINDED by the processed slop garbage.

      Why? Its not like Bill is a genius or has any credentials in the field. You do realize that back in the 80s he and Steve Jobs got into a public fight and Steve Jobs accused him of stealing from Jobs and Bill admitted they both stole, but from Xerox, and Bill stole the software while Jobs stole the hardware while they were working in the innovation department at Xerox. Look it up, do the research, this is much easier than having to look through scientific literature so it shouldn't be hard for you to find out that Gates and Jobs are not geniuses, but rather, they are Thomas Edison's of our generation while the people who created the software and hardware ideas they stole from the real geniuses exactly like they did to Tesla. The real geniuses rarely make the history books because they aren't concerned with making a fortune but are overwhelmed with advancing mankind...
