Bill Gates: Solving Covid easy compared with climate
Solving climate change would be "the most amazing thing humanity has ever
done", says the billionaire founder of Microsoft.
By comparison, ending the pandemic is "very, very easy", he claims.
Mr Gates's new book, How to Avoid a Climate Disaster, is a guide to tackling
global warming.
Don't underestimate the scale of the challenge, he told me when we spoke last
week.
"We've never made a transition like we're talking about doing in the next 30
years. There is no precedent for this."
Fifty-one billion is how many tonnes of greenhouse gases the world typically
adds to the atmosphere each year.
Zero is where we need to get to.
====================================================
比尔盖兹出新书了。
相较于气候变迁，传染病的问题好解决得多。
有一句话我不太会翻:
"We've never made a transition like we're talking about doing in the next 30
years. ...."
"我们从未做出如同现在所谈论的关于未来三十年将从事的变革"<==是这样翻吗？
这才是真正的美国菁英所关切的议题。
反观台湾只能帮忙消化美国滞销的莱克多巴胺、还有过时的武器。
Taiwan can help. Really? How?
