2010Feb12: At the TED Conference in Long Beach, California, Microsoft Corp. founder Bill Gates argued that the world must eliminate all of its carbon emissions and cut energy costs in half by 2050 in order to prevent climate catastrophe. He urged the world’s tech community to discover a way to turn spent nuclear fuel into clean affordable energy and the world to adopt an energy portfolio that features carbon capture and storage technology, nuclear, wind, and solar power (CNN).
