We can only hope and pray that Jeffrey Bezos is not that stupid and so gullible!
"First, supporting groups lobbying for policies like carbon taxes, subsidies or emissions mandates that would accelerate the rollout of existing clean energy technologies like solar, wind and electric vehicles, or directly backing the politicians pushing them. Second, funding early stage academic or national lab research and development in areas where we still haven't developed affordable and scalable ways of eliminating or canceling out the greenhouse gas emissions driving climate change.
Those could include: large-scale energy storage technologies to balance out fluctuations in wind, solar and other clean energy sources; methods for reducing climate pollution from fertilizers, livestock and other parts of our agricultural systems; and improved tools for capturing emissions from power plants and factories, or removing it from the atmosphere and permanently storing it."
What Bezos may want to consider investing in is (in no particular order and certainly not exhaustive):
- Economic development and prosperity e.g. in Africa and Latin America and some parts of Asia
- Nuclear fusion
- Superconductivity
- Hydrogen power
- Photosynthesis for power generation
- Desalination
Here is another article about Bezo's donation: Amazon’s Jeff Bezos pledges $10 billion to battle climate change
"“Climate change is the biggest threat to our planet,” Bezos said in an Instagram post."
Only proves to be among the richest humans on earth does not make someone very intelligent!
