Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates recently turned around on his stance on climate change. Gates, who has long warned of the dangers of the rising temperatures, says climate change will not lead to the destruction of humanity.
In a memo released on Tuesday, coinciding with Gates' 70th birthday, the Microsoft co-founder called on the world to reframe its approach to the dangers posed by climate change. Gates explained that the doomsday narrative only drives the needed resources away from the solutions that could greatly impact the welfare of humanity. Gates' memo comes ahead of the COP30, the United Nations climate change summit that will take place in Brazil in two weeks' time.
