Jeff Bezos earth Fund: How $10bn to fight climate change?

Nov 22,2023 11:11 pm

up to Ten billion dollars - or £7. 7 billion Sounds like a serious amount of money.

It is, how much the richest man in The World Jeff Bezos , he's going to spend to combat Climate Change .

But what you do spend $10bn? And it is somewhere in the vicinity enough?

According to Professor Elizabeth Robinson University of Reading, some of The Solutions are known But "not yet happened".

Clean energy,

Elizabeth, an expert in environmental and resource Economics, proposes that The Money could be spent to stop the encouragement of the governments - which generate carbon dioxide and warm The Planet .

"We must instead begin to invest in clean energy, such as renewable. If we do this, we have a lot of the way there. "

The British government has come in the last year, with The Wind industry to ensure 30% of Electricity from offshore Wind by 2030.

Seamus Garvey, an energy storage expert at the University of Nottingham, are of the opinion that Renewable Energy is the key.

He says, the technology is available, But it must be made "cheaper" for People . "It is a matter of flexibility in the current. "

Wind Turbines are considered as an alternative to fossil fuels.

Seamus substances suggests the need to mix of Wind and Solar Energy -so it works all year long.

"The Wind is very seasonal and blows hard in the Winter as storm Dennis has shown us. Solar is also the seasonal and The Sun shines mostly in the summer. So we need to keep him balance. "

"investment in transport'

There is a lot to talk about cars and airplanes on The Environment , so Elizabeth money is spent to Upgrade must be transport systems.

"We need to start to invest in affordable low-move-cost public transportation, the People to choose, out of their cars and into trains. "

she adds that the subsidisation of long distance Public Transport , "inexpensive and reliable" means, the People may choose "not to fly".

"We need alternatives - the People in mainland Europe can often take The Train wherever you want to go. "

Some People decide to Do Something , called number additional contribution to the environmental projects, reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

Seamus calls this "a good thing in principle, But not enough in practice".

"If we do, the right compensation, we would pay a lot of money. "

Elizabeth says that, while they do not "treat everyone on a flight on holiday or to see the family," the only way to really make a difference, is it, "fly less".

"Protect our forests"

Targeting the important areas that are good for The Environment can also help, says Elizabeth.

"For the protection of our forests, we need to have things like GoSee tip: rewilding and the planting of Trees , where it makes sense to plant Trees . "

Forest fires in the Amazon rain Forest

And she believes, in agriculture must be developed, because it "bears a large share" of emissions in The World

"We have to do is Eat , But we need to find ways to, agriculture and forestry better. "

According to Elizabeth, there are "technical solutions" for the cultivation of crops that make the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere "more efficient".

But $10bn is not enough?

Jeff Bezos is the CEO of Amazon - One of The World 's largest companies and in the year 2018, the corporate was 44. 4 Million Tons.

"This is a lot like a Small Country ," says Seamus.

"Jeff Bezos is not climate-problems with $10bn can solve on its own. It could be of importance, But it is not enough to also the transfer of energy in the UK. "

Seamus says The Money "could help kickstart" other companies that are able to - After the Amazon founder said he would be financing the work of scientists, activists, and other groups.

Amazon has said in the past criticized for his lack of action in the fight against Climate Change

Elizabeth, to deal with large companies like Amazon have a "moral obligation" to Climate Change .

"make you huge profits. Therefore, it would not be really hard. "

In a statement to Radio 1 news beat, Amazon said it was their "vision, all of the Amazon shipments net-zero-carbon, with 50% of all shipments, net-zero by 2030.

"Amazon , the sustainability team is to develop a scientific approach to data and strategies, a rigorous approach to sustainability of our work.

"We have started several large and effective programs and work hard to integrate this approach fully about Amazon . "

Search The World

Lower-income countries that have not developed such a rule, higher levels of fossil fuels.

Elizabeth says The Money will be used to develop these countries and away from harmful fuels.

increase in The World 's ecosystem would help to combat Climate Change , says Elizabeth

"That's where some of that $10bn could have a real impact. These countries are Under Pressure to reduce poverty and grow economically, and they are to do with dirty energy. To find a way to develop, without you, this would be helpful. "

And it is only about The Money ?

"It's about a commitment," says Elizabeth.
