Bill Gates: The innovations we need to avoid a climate disaster | TED Countdown

Take action on climate change at countdown.ted.com.
The single most important thing for avoiding a climate disaster is cutting carbon pollution from the current 51 billion tons per year to zero, says philanthropist and technologist Bill Gates. Introducing the concept of the "green premium" -- the higher price of zero-emission products like electric cars, artificial meat or sustainable aviation fuel -- Gates identifies the breakthroughs and investments we need to reduce the cost of clean tech, decarbonize the economy and create a pathway to a clean and prosperous future for all. (This virtual conversation, hosted by TED Global curator Bruno Giussani, was recorded in March 2021.)
Countdown is TED's global initiative to accelerate solutions to the climate crisis. The goal: to build a better future by cutting greenhouse gas emissions in half by 2030, in the race to a zero-carbon world. Get involved at countdown.ted.com/sign-up

It doesn't strength concrete. But you can make hempcrete as a building material. It isn't strong but it does sequester co2, it is breathable and temperature regulating, it is mold and mildew resistant, it is fire proof, it is pest resistant, and it does get stronger as it ages. So we can replace sheet rock and insulation by building with hempcrete. There is also hemp wood, hemp plaster, and on and on.

[@terencemckenna9760]

This is my problem with Gates' plan: It doesn't propose any fundamental shift in the way we relate to the planet. We can keep driving cars they just need to be electric. We can still eat burgers they just need to be 'impossible" burgers. We can still run our air conditioners they just need to be solar powered. We can still build with concrete it just needs to be "green" concrete. We can still cut down forests they just need to be "sustainably" managed. We can still fly airplanes they just need to use bio-fuels. Basically: we can still live the way we live today and consume what we consume... we just make those products "green". Gates' proposals are much easier to accept than more "radical" changes. But sooner or later we will be forced to make "radical" changes to the way we live. Gates' ideas are not the way to avoid climate disaster. They are a clever marketing strategy aimed at consumers who are awakening to the unfolding climate disaster.

[@mortcog4767]

Such a short sighted view. If you the consumer stopped buying their products they'd change over night. If the government had listened to scientists and changed the laws decades ago it wouldn't be problem. If the people voting in the government had voted in different people maybe they would have changed the laws. Companies are beholden to the shareholder and have a responsibility to operate a profitable company. It is the government and consumer responsibility to dictate what a business is allowed to do. If you are mad at Big-(whatever) it's probably a consumers fault. After all how was the device you used to post this made?

[@chanceg6008]

I totally agree. Yes emissions need to be reduced and we need to be mindful of our consumption. Our earths soil carbon sponge needs to be a much bigger focus because the earths hydrological cycle has such a massive effect on our climate and yet it is largely ignored in favor of like you said technology.

[@Eikenhorst]

I fear that Geo Engineering as a solution for climate change is a very controversial topic! We could make the planet far more reactive in order to limit the heating from the sun. But this is going to have negative impacts on some other regions. For example, if we just spend a lot of energy producing more clouds by evaporating sea water, this can also result in rain and flooding on some regions. I like the option of flooding the Qattara Depression in Egypt for example, but this is not without risk and long term consequences.

[@Willard_and_Wee-un]

There's a huge problem with this plan and I submit that it's exemplified by the fact there exists a "tech" industry which excludes the industrial economy. It's cheap to disrupt the software and entertainment industries. Places like Silicon Valley just hoover up all the best engineers. No one graduates with an engineering degree dreaming about the chance to work in cement production. Innovation is like a tree that's not true-from-seed. It takes almost 100,000 apple trees to get one that produces fruit that tastes good. If the smartest engineers don't start pouring into these legacy, old-timey, stodgy, bureaucratic industries then climate change innovation will just be crab apples no matter how much money gets thrown at it.

Once there are incentives and the money is flowing consistently into reducing emissions in these industries, the talent will go there. Following the money is the number one rule for bright minds with big student loans to pay off.

CO2 Sequestration which mainly supports the carbon capture efforts will be an area of concern that really contributed to the reduction of emissions, but the commitment to both carbon capture and practical actions for emission reductions still not moving fast or expanded realistically. Again the amount of compensation for the tons of carbon is also required to be once seen and adjusted to acceptable levels. Transparency and accountability linked with carbon capture measurements are also important areas of concern that need to be seen well in depth.
