If “Time” wins the Oscar this year, it will be the first documentary directed by a Black woman to do so. Garrett Bradley’s talent makes her worthy of that milestone. This is one of the most intimate movies I have ever seen. #itsTIME gatesnot.es/3dU2Gvb

Communities of color have been hit hard by COVID-19. One of the reasons why parts of the medical system often fail Black and brown people is because it’s not designed with them in mind. Dr. Stephaun Wallace wants to change that. youtube.com/watch?v=knBQcY…

The amount of cement China has consumed is a staggering statistic and reminder of how much emissions have grown in low- and middle-income countries. (Minecraft concrete doesn’t count, though server farms are responsible for a lot of emissions.)

It's #WorldTBDay
Even as we battle #COVID19, we must not ease up the fight against #Tuberculosis, which remains the 🌎🌍🌏’s deadliest infectious killer. Each day this preventable & curable disease causes:
🔸>4000 deaths

It’s deeply unfair that the people who contribute the least to climate change will suffer the worst from its effects: gatesnot.es/3bZemwP
Over the past few weeks health workers in Ethiopia 🇪🇹, Nigeria 🇳🇬, Sudan 🇸🇩 and the Philippines 🇵🇭 were vaccinated against COVID-19 - thanks to #COVAX, a global initiative to ensure the fair distribution of vaccines.

I named my book “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster,” not “How to Stop Climate Change,” because our climate is already changing—and no one will be hurt more by climate change than the world’s poorest people. Here's how we can help them adapt. gatesnot.es/3rW3dTb

Congratulations @AndrewSteerWRI on this important role. I’m excited to see what you and the Earth Fund will achieve. Avoiding a climate disaster is going to take all of us, and I’m grateful for @JeffBezos’s leadership and partnership.
It has been the privilege of a lifetime to lead @WorldResources over the last 8 years. The passion and dedication of our global team is inspiring. Together we've shifted the narrative on sustainable development and strived for a better future for people and the planet. [1/5]
Thank you @SalKhanAcademy for a great conversation about climate change and thanks to @BookPeople and @BlueWillowBooks for hosting the event.

Virologist Ruth Bishop pioneered the research that led to the discovery of rotavirus. Her legacy continues both as a role model for other researchers and in the millions of children’s lives that have been saved because of her heroic work: gatesnot.es/3rvMF41 #IWD2021
Thank you @BarackObama for the kind words. Your leadership at the 2015 Paris climate conference helped prove that global cooperation on climate is possible and gives me hope that we can reach our goal of zero emissions.
.@BillGates' new book is an exceptionally clear and accessible primer on climate change. He's unblinking in the difficulty of meeting this challenge but maintains a cautious optimism that it can be met—and provides a framework for action that is both specific and workable. pic.twitter.com/Ukms2M9iK5
To get to net-zero by 2050, we need an unprecedented technological transformation across every major sector of our economy. But there are also important ways you can influence clean energy solutions where you live, work, and vote. @Breakthrough Energy nt-z.ro/2NdaCEA

Moving to a green economy is the biggest challenge the world has ever faced. I’m optimistic we can do it, but need to make sure it benefits everyone—including those workers and communities who depend on the fossil fuels that we need to get rid of. gatesnot.es/2OiCGAq

We can’t avoid a climate disaster without corporate leaders making courageous decisions now. I hope to work with @VWGroup on building the markets for the clean technologies the world needs. Thank you for the kind words, Herbert.

Delivering vaccines to those who need them most, no matter where they live or how much money they have, is the only way to end the pandemic and begin the recovery. This is an important milestone.
Congratulations Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana for administering the first shipment of African #COVAX vaccine doses! These are the first of many to protect frontline & health care workers around the world & marks another incredible victory for equitable access: bit.ly/3014Nqq

Meaningful action from business leaders will require the courage to take risks that many companies aren't used to taking.
Are there things businesses can do to make a measurable difference for the climate? @Billgates thinks so. ‘But they will not come easily’ he warns in his green manifesto, published on @FTlifearts: ft.com/content/c11bb8…
Thanks to @andersoncooper, @SeaArtsLectures, and everyone who joined our virtual conversation about climate change. Great to have so much support from my hometown for this important work.
Great to see this important step as the United States resumes our global leadership on climate change. Looking forward to working with @POTUS and Congress on a plan to ensure we reach net zero by 2050.
Today, America is officially back in the Paris Climate Agreement. Let’s get to work.
Thanks to @streickercenter for hosting the launch of my virtual book tour. It was great to hear so many thoughtful questions about what we can all do to help avoid a climate disaster.
