Bill Gates is planning to double his personal investment in innovative green technologies to $2bn over the next five years in an attempt to “bend the curve” on climate change.
比尔•盖茨(Bill Gates)计划在未来5年将自己对创新绿色技术的个人投资增加一倍，至20亿美元，希望借此改变气候变化的趋势线。
The billionaire philanthropist said he had invested about $1bn in dozens of early-stage companies — including battery, next generation nuclear and free air carbon capture — hoping they would develop “breakthrough” technologies.
这位亿万富翁慈善家表示，他已对数十家早期阶段公司投资约10亿美元，希望它们将开发出“突破性”技术。这些公司活跃于电池、下一代核电和大气层碳捕捉等领域。
Mr Gates, who is listed by Forbes as the world’s richest person with a net worth of almost $80bn, said he had invested directly in about 15 companies and indirectly in another 30. “Over the next five years, there’s a good chance that will double,” he told the Financial Times.
