Melinda’s new book The #MomentofLift is an urgent call to action. I’ll commit to the lift by working to ensure that we collect better data about women’s lives and livelihoods.
There are concrete actions we all can take in our day-to-day lives to make real progress towards gender equality. How will you commit to the lift? Share with #MomentofLift. m-gat.es/2XqTZhV pic.twitter.com/qnVhuf5A6r
Gene drive is a technique where you give a few mosquitoes an edited gene and it drives itself into all their offspring. It could one day help us defeat diseases like malaria: b-gat.es/2XuPpz8
Less than a century ago, families everywhere lived in fear of a mosquito bite. Now 75% of all malaria cases occur in just 15 countries. The partners fighting this disease won’t rest until we’ve reached every case of malaria, while saving as many lives as possible along the way.

I’m proud that @Microsoft is one of the many companies taking action to fight climate change and excited about its leadership in using AI to accelerate progress on these challenges.
The environment can't wait for us to do more. That's why we are taking new steps to put sustainability at the core of every part of our business and increasing our internal carbon fee to $15. msft.social/TCoVGk
Shapeshifters are not just the stuff of science fiction, though. We have them right here on earth.
There’s an epic scene at the end where Spock has to figure out which one is the impostor. youtube.com/watch?v=ZbENVi…
As a teenager, I remember watching an episode of the original Star Trek where the bad guy is a shapeshifter who turns himself into a second Captain Kirk.
When I was younger, I loved science fiction. The author I read the most was Robert Heinlein (“The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress” was a favorite).

Melinda and I were honored to join President Bush and Laura Bush @TheBushCenter. Their leadership of programs like @PEPFAR has helped save millions of lives around the world.
I would say this even if I weren’t married to the author: @melindagates’s new book “The Moment of Lift” is a terrific read. You can see for yourself by downloading a free excerpt: b-gat.es/2IiDXmO
I’ve learned so much from Melinda over the years and I’m delighted she is now sharing her insights with the rest of the world: b-gat.es/2FZRImH
It also includes insights about our marriage, the path we took to become equals in our work, and how she has helped me grow as a father and husband.
She shares her personal journey from private citizen to public advocate -- including how she pushed our foundation to focus more on women’s empowerment.
“The Moment of Lift” is a wise, honest, and beautifully written book about how empowering women lifts up everyone.
.@melindagates is the most important person in my life: an amazing partner, wife, mother, and friend (and now accomplished author!). Her new book is a terrific read that will leave you feeling enlightened and inspired: b-gat.es/2G0gtzp pic.twitter.com/CdBwQQb0QA

When Paul and I founded @Microsoft together, we were confident that computers would change the world. But we never could have imagined how much fun we would have along the way.
Happy Birthday @Microsoft! Founded 44 years ago today!

Nuclear energy is one of these critical technologies. It’s ideal for dealing with climate change, because it is the only carbon-free, scalable energy source that’s available 24 hours a day.
To prevent the worst effects of climate change, we need to reach near-zero emissions on all the things that drive it—agriculture, electricity, manufacturing, transportation, and buildings—by investing in innovation across all sectors while deploying low cost renewables.
Yesterday, a bipartisan group of leaders in the U.S. Senate introduced the Nuclear Energy Leadership Act, which establishes an ambitious plan to accelerate the development of advanced nuclear reactor technologies. I can’t overstate how important this is.

Most discussions about fighting climate change focus on electricity and the need for renewable energy. De-carbonizing the way we generate electricity would be a huge step, but it won’t be enough to avoid the worst effects of climate change. pic.twitter.com/C4oCIz6iXg
