‘I plead guilty’ – Bill Gates confesses his climate guilt: ‘My carbon footprint is absurdly high…I have felt guilty about this…I own big houses & fly in private planes…who am I to lecture anyone on the environment?’

Bill Gates: "It’s true that my carbon footprint is absurdly high. For a long time I have felt guilty about this. Working on this book has made me even more conscious of my responsibility to reduce my emissions; shrinking my carbon footprint is the least that can be expected of someone in my position. In 2020, I started buying sustainable jet fuel and will fully offset my family’s aviation emissions in 2021...I am aware that I’m an imperfect messenger on climate change. The world is not exactly lacking in rich men with big ideas about what other people should do, or who think technology can fix any problem. I own big houses and fly in private planes – in fact, I took one to Paris for the climate conference, so who am I to lecture anyone on the environment?

I plead guilty to all three charges. I can’t deny being a rich guy with an opinion."

I do not believe for one second the truth of this statement.  He has something up his sleeve and needs people on his side. :pondering:

Agreed. Gates is evil.  He just bought up a bunch of farmland and he owns more than anybody in the U.S. 

He is a billionaire and he's now feeling guilty about his large homes?  B.S.  You bettcha he has ulterior motives.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Well, he can solve his carbon guilt by just throwing himself onto one of his solar panels.

Appropriate sacrifice to his god Gaia.
No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

Isn't that spelled Greta?
My bet is he not monotheistic  so he worships multiple gods
