9. I don't hate him for it. He created Amazon 30 years ago.

I applaud his charities & the direction he's leading other donors to.
There are millionares & billionares who have done some truly callous & selfish things with their wealth.

Poking more specifically into where the money is dedicated tells us a lot about where we can expect big corporations to prioritize climate action during 2021. With that in mind, here are three of my takeaways from Bezos’s big bets.

1. Climate equity and environmental justice is getting much-needed funding

2. Anticipate more attention to the potential of ocean carbon sequestration

3. Don’t underestimate the potential of satellites in the fight against climate change
Details of the 3 focuses are listed at above link.
