Bill Gates Says Lack of Climate Cooperation Is Unlikely to Last
President Donald Trump’s campaign to wind back the climate agenda of his predecessor belies a continued commitment in the US to the clean-energy transition, according to Bill Gates.
Unwinding global collaborations to address climate change “works against us,” Gates said at Temasek Holdings Pte.’s Ecosperity Week conference in Singapore on Monday. The expectation is that the current pushback will subside, “maybe not overnight,” he said. But “there’s a lot of commitment to this cause in the United States.”
