One of the more interesting, and most talked about, moments involves Bill take out a jar of fireflies (at last years talk, he used mosquitos) to make a point. Definitely a great video to take in, and it gives you a nice idea of what Mr. Gates is up to these days.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Tags:<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/bill+gates\" rel=\"tag\">bill gates<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/carbon+emissions\" rel=\"tag\">carbon emissions<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/climate+change\" rel=\"tag\">climate change<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/co2\" rel=\"tag\">co2<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/fireflies\" rel=\"tag\">fireflies<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/science\" rel=\"tag\">science<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/ted\" rel=\"tag\">ted<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/ted+2010\" rel=\"tag\">ted 2010<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/ted+talks\" rel=\"tag\">ted talks<\/a>,<br \/>\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/tag\/videos\" rel=\"tag\">videos<\/a>,\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#FFCC66; padding:5px; margin-top:5px;\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/news\/article\/q110-bill-gates-ted-fireflies-carbon-emissions\/\" title=\"Bill Gates hits TED, uses fireflies to address our energy future\">Bill Gates hits TED, uses fireflies to address our energy future<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gearlive.com\/\" title=\"Gear Live\">Gear Live<\/a> on Thu, February 18, 2010 &#8211; 3:31:22\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/WMX5UF918bfu0UWg0Mt4B1fmAdo\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/WMX5UF918bfu0UWg0Mt4B1fmAdo\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/WMX5UF918bfu0UWg0Mt4B1fmAdo\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/WMX5UF918bfu0UWg0Mt4B1fmAdo\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.gearlive.com\/~ff\/rss_2?a=G8QnZbB7Eug:xc-Ys9FZr94:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/rss_2?i=G8QnZbB7Eug:xc-Ys9FZr94:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.gearlive.com\/~ff\/rss_2?a=G8QnZbB7Eug:xc-Ys9FZr94:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/rss_2?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/rss_2\/~4\/G8QnZbB7Eug\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At TED 2010, Bill Gates gave a talk that laid out his vision and hope for the world&#8217;s energy future, citing the need for what may amount to a miracle to avoid planetary catastrophe, with the goal of zero carbon emissions across the globe by 2050.
