Bill Gates on Renewable Energy
2GreenEnergy Business Director George Alger sent me this interview in which Bill Gates speaks on renewable energy.
George: Yes, he makes some good points, and he’s a fan (as am I) of Donald Sadoway’s work at MIT.
But as you can see from the comments, not everyone agrees with a lot of what he says. I, for one, completely disagree with a great deal of this. His position that biomass holds huge promise while solar is “cute” and “for rich people” is pretty far out there on the fringe.
It’s as if he said that Dorothy Hamill was his favorite ice hockey team. But when you have a guy of that stature, he can say that 2 and 2 are 5, and it will garner huge amounts of attention.
Bill Gates has used billions of tons of fossil fuel and become one of the richest people on the planet but feels putting money into renewables is not worth it. Their fossil fuels Bill, you know millions of years to make, finite amount etc…. Is he serious what a joke. Shame on us for letting it happen!!
