The problems caused by climate change are often in the headlines. It’s less often that we hear about the progress being made in the fight against it. But through my investments and work with Breakthrough Energy, I’m lucky to have insight into a lot of the most exciting innovations—and the companies bringing them to life.
At this year’s Breakthrough Energy Summit in London, over 100 of them have gathered to share the solutions they’ve been working on that are ready to get to work and tackle climate change today. They include:



Window glass so energy efficient that it performs like a see-through wall
Microbial products, already used on 5 million acres, that make crops need less fertilizer
EV battery recycling that recovers critical minerals and slashes emissions
Technology that turns plant waste into carbon-trapping bricks
Advanced power lines that can double our current grid’s transmission
These are only a few of the incredible innovations addressing the five grand challenges of climate change: manufacturing, agriculture, transportation, electricity, and buildings. What’s most exciting, though, is that they aren’t just ideas or prototypes; they’re proven technologies that are already commercially deployed or about to be. I’ve just published a blog post that goes into more detail about them—and many others at the summit.
The Clean Industrial Revolution isn’t a far-off dream. It’s here and on full display in London. And the BE Summit isn’t just a showcase for these clean technologies—it’s a launchpad. By bringing together leaders from government and industry, we’re catalyzing the investments needed to scale them up, accelerate their adoption, and amplify their impact in the fight against climate change.
You can read more about these ready-to-work solutions, and what makes this year’s BE Summit so different from years past, on Gates Notes now.
As always, thanks for being an Insider.

THE LEARNING HUB: To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out to another is to risk involvement, To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return, To live is to risk dying, To hope is to risk despair, To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free. ~Leo Buscaglia (Art: Photograph by Izis Bidermanas) ©THE LEARNING HUB 2023
