    This is one of the most flagrantly out of touch self-fulfilling prophecies for rich asshats like him. “We’re not going to hit the climate goals anyway, because billionaires like me don’t have the courage to ensure we hit the climate goals.”

    Ask most climate scientists what would allow us to reach our goals, and their answers usually start with money. This guy has a lot of money. Google has, like, all the money. Instead, these corporations invest in power-hungry products that nobody asked for, and spend millions lobbying governments to deregulate everything, all in the name of profits. They don’t give a shit about our planet.
