I guess we can all sleep easier in our beds now:
Billionaire Bill Gates has dramatically changed his position on climate change, acknowledging for this first time there is no “doomsday” risk from global warming.
In a memo published by Gates Notes Monday night, the Microsoft co-founder, who has poured billions into combating global warming, urged a move away from what he called a “doomsday outlook” and toward improving living conditions in developing nations.
“Although climate change will have serious consequences — particularly for people in the poorest countries — it will not lead to humanity’s demise,” Gates wrote. “People will be able to live and thrive in most places on Earth for the foreseeable future.”
Hey Bill: as long as you use your money and not taxpayer money to improve living conditions in developing nations (what we call “shitholes”), knock yourself out.
I wonder what made him change his mind about the looming catastrophe that is Global Warming Climate Cooling Change©?
Whatever it was, it has to do with money. Count on it.
Someone mentioned that it’s funny how a lot of liberal shit is drying up after Trump shutdown USAID. It would appear that Mr. Gates wasn’t playing with his own money, he was playing with taxpayer money via USAID. Now that it’s down to his money (what’s left after Mrs. Gates divorced him), he’s decided that it’s not the crisis he originally thought.
So, pretty much exactly what you said, MONEY.
I fear this means he thinks he’s found some BETTER way to bring about humanity’s demise – perhaps with fake meat, fake butter, more experimental vaccines, or Windows 666 (Eye of Sauron Edition)..
I’m not disagreeing with you, Mr. Bix.
I’m stunned that Gates isn’t in prison for operating a monopoly. Can you buy a computer without Microsoft products on it? What was the deal that was struck between the Clinton administration and Gates back in the 90s? Gates was also facing big lawsuits in Europe I believe.
I’m sure that he was a frequent visitor to Epstein’s island and Diddy’s parties.
I don’t trust Gates as far as I could throw that pencil neck geek.
I don’t think Gates changed his mind, he’s acknowledging what he’s known all along. That the jig is up. He’d better bail before there are consequences.
Yeah, sounds like Plan A didn’t pan out. Time to find Plan B. This won’t of course undo the years of fuckery that came about in regulatory agencies, advocacy groups, politicians, indoctrination centers (aka Public Schools).
The Evil that men do…
You do know that Bill Gates named his company “Microsoft” after his penis, right?
And today Billy boy is backpedaling after getting heat from the usual suspects.
You mean like Jamie Lee Curtis backpedaled after she showed she had a soul when Charlie Kirk was murdered.
Why did Bill Gate, founder of Microsoft (and seriously, why did he name the company after his penis?), suddenly decide that Global Warmings isn’t an issue anymore? Well, AI search engines consume prodigious amounts of electricity, which gets a lot more expensive when lefty governments mandate carbon-free windmills and solar panels. Bill wants cheap electricity more than he cares about some stupid pro-socialist scaremonger theory. As always, follow the money.
