There are a lot of things I agree with in Bill Gates' new climate memo, but I think it sets up a false dichotomy between reducing emissions and helping the world's poorest. I've put together a piece with my thoughts over at TCB:
On the Gates climate memo
There is a lot of things I agree with in Bill Gates’ new memo on climate change, but I think it fundamentally sets up a false dichotomy.

Today we mourn the loss of one of our founders, Barry Benepe, and we celebrate his legacy:

"In 1966, he helped organize a protest to close Central Park to automobile traffic on Sundays in the summer."

52 years later, the park went car-free every day, all year long.
Barry Benepe, Who Gave New York Its Greenmarkets, Dies at 96
He brought farm-grown produce to the city’s streets, creating the largest network of farmers’ markets in the country and helping to revive neighborhoods.
