I always enjoy reading what Bill Gates has to say these days. For obvious reasons at this point.<p>He&#x27;s completely right of course on climate change. And yet, the US is about to elect likely one of two exceedingly wealthy individuals who don&#x27;t remotely care about these issues right now.<p>It&#x27;ll be interesting to see in 40 years whether or not humans take this seriously enough &#x2F; avoid disaster. Let&#x27;s not forget this very modern internet was created in the last like 15-20 years, huge advances can happen and Gates&#x27; optimism isn&#x27;t a pipe dream that&#x27;s never happened.
