Bill Gates Breaks down the Basics of Reusable Energy

In comparison to Friedman's work, Bill Gates presents some specific examples about how we can give the world cleaner energy. The rise of poorer countries is also a key contribution to the energy problem, so in order to help people in third world countries, their future source of energy must be considered.

Any analysis needs to consider middle-income and poor countries whose energy demands are increasing as people move out of poverty leading to increased CO2 emissions. For the poorest, more expensive energy reduces their access to energy-driven services like increased use of fertilizer, vaccine refrigeration, reasonable transportation, and many other things that can improve the conditions in which they live. Poor people need energy that is both cheap and clean – which only R&D advances can provide.

Thanks to the increase in funding of R&D from Gates and others, new ideas can be put to work. Having conferences and videos like this, allows the public to be better informed.
