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, .”

"the climate is easy to solve group is our biggest problem" ... Spot on !

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.

According to the head of the IEA the real problem is the thousands of coal fired electricity plants being built in Asia. We should focus on helping them use more efficient carbon capture for the plants.

The question Bill Gates needs to be asked before dispensing his advice on energy, climate, etc., is: What is $ value of damage inflicted on the world by computer viruses enabled by Windows OS over several decades?

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

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?

BILL IS RIGHT HERE . WE NEED PRESIDENTS WHO WORK WITH HIS ENVIRONMENTAL PLANS .

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..

I always wish success 👏

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. Huge potiential for growth with strategic partnerships with the British EV Market.

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.

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.

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.

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.

But some day may be far far in the future. CO2 is good for plants. Good for life as we know it right here. Bill Gates should be aware of the specific frequencies at which CO2 acts as a GHG: tiny & overshadowed by water vapor.

that's only because you been taught too much in school, that when he says something similar you feel you are smart, otherwise everything Bill Gate says here is against freedom will,

@@alejandropeters4578 The amount of any warming caused by human CO2 emissions is tiny as to be in margin of error territory.

CamberwellCarrot yes, but the natural co2 emission is in equilibrium with the absorption, a that tiny bit extra isn’t being absorbd there for this builds up and changes the climate, drastically over time. The natural co2 emission is good, and needed, but any extra breaks the balance and there for adds energy to the system. So comparing the small amount to the over all emission is a wrong way of looking at it. When you do the basic math this is an obvious result. But In my opinion it doesn’t matter if the earth heats up a bit. It will just mean big change, and regions that are now habitable will become uninhabitable, and vise versa. For me in Europe this won’t change much, but in Africa it will. So climate change will create drouth in Africa, there by meaning the death of a lot of Africans, but I don’t care about that, becous I don’t live there. But when you doe care about other people, than that extra co2 emission is a disaster.

He was never brilliant. He really set the world back 20 years by selling IBM someone else's inferior DOS product and then getting the benefit of IBM's foolish and expensive attempt to stop apple computer. Because IBM, PC's became the standard, we all suffered for all those years while Microsoft tried to make an Apple equivalent. Bill Gates, better to be lucky than good.
