Thank you to all the remarkable individuals and global leaders who joined us at the @GatesFoundation #Goalkeepers2030 event today. Urgent action is needed to achieve a more equitable and safe future for all by 2030—but today left me more inspired than ever that it can be done.

“I was going over a list of books that are banned in Tennessee [schools] and… the list was really staggering,” says novelist Ann Patchett. “Yet at the same time, we’re not doing anything to keep our children safe from guns… It’s ludicrous and an embarrassment… It’s a crime.”

So did I @BillGates :) I loved Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin, even though I never thought I'd relate to a book about gaming. https://t.co/vPTVcPJv5s via @billgates

I love this question. My mum always believed in education, having an opinion and speaking up. She didn’t have the same opportunities as me growing up but she made sure I had access to all the things she never did. I am forever grateful / full of guilt. 🙏🏼

I spent a fun few days in Wyoming last week with @BillGates and @TerraPower to see the site of their next gen nuclear facility - clean energy can help fight climate change and bring jobs to the community! And the lovely @RebeccaJarvis from ABC News came along too!

This next-generation nuclear facility will be a win for the local economy, America’s energy independence, and the fight against climate change.
