Buckle up, because Bill Gates has been making waves this week with his bold climate pivot thats got everyone buzzing. In a bombshell memo dropped on his 70th birthday last Tuesday, as reported by Fortune, Gates slammed the doomsday climate narrative for sucking resources from real game-changers like vaccines and poverty fixes in poor countries. He argues emissions projections have plunged 40 percent since 2015 thanks to cheap solar and EVs, per International Energy Agency data, so lets prioritize human welfare over endless emission obsessionsahead of COP30 in Brazil. This marks a huge biographical shift from his 2021 book How to Avoid a Climate Disaster, weighing long-term as he pushes adaptation over alarmism. PBS NewsHour dissected it last week, questioning if hes right to urge resilience over temperature panic, while CBS News highlighted his essay warning against climate alarmism just yesterday.
No fresh public appearances or speaking gigs popped upTicketSales and SeatGeek show zilch for nowbut his GatesNotes blog amplified the memo, stressing three tough climate truths. On misinformation, a CNBC Make It interview revealed Gates fretting its a toxic legacy hes passing to daughter Phoebe, whos faced online harassment over family memes; he eyes AI to fight it without curbing free speech. Business wise, his foundations Goalkeepers event looms with him as a key speaker, and the Discovery Center stays shuttered through January for maintenance.
In the past 24 hours, no major headlines beyond echoes of his climate essay rippling through PBS and CBS. All verified, no speculation herehes steering philanthropy toward high-impact bets that could define his legacy.
