What’s the deadliest problem in the world right now?. It kills more people than malaria, AIDS, tuberculosis, and cholera combined. The worst part: almost no one is talking about it. Watch this.👇

7/ Make a tax-deductible donation to the Bettering Human Lives Foundation. I’ll match your donations up to $10,000 to double the difference you make. Stand up for MORE energy, not less, for families in the developing world.

5/ What’s the solution? Cooking with gas!. ~20% of people in Africa cook with gas. Why doesn’t Lina use gas?. She can’t access it; nearest gas is 9 miles away. She couldn’t afford it even if she could. The solution is to help local businesses make gas accessible & affordable

2/ Meet Lina. I was in her kitchen. She’s one of 2 billion people worldwide who cook using wood, dung, or charcoal. That's 1 out of 4 people!. See the black soot caked on her kitchen walls?. Lina inhales that same soot—the equivalent of smoking 2 packs of cigarettes every day.

Here’s a video of me after 2 minutes in a smoke-filled kitchen in Africa. I’ve studied energy poverty for years—the statistics, the books, the scientific articles. But nothing prepared me for experiencing it firsthand.🧵

The AI boom needs nuclear power. Oklo and Switch are teaming up to deploy 12 GW of advanced nuclear power, marking one of the largest corporate clean power agreements in history. 12 GW = the annual electricity usage of ~10 million US households.

Over the past 5 years, the UK expanded offshore wind power by 50%! . Now its paying £1 Billion to turn off wind power when it’s windy because of grid constraints.

North Face refused to make a branded jacket for a fossil fuel company. The hypocrisy is mind boggling. ~90% of North Face products are made from fossil fuel. Thank you @ChrisAWright_ for exposing this hollow virtue signaling.

Chris Wright tapped as Secretary of Energy. Chris is the ideal fit—mission-driven, principled, and dedicated to clean, reliable, and affordable energy for all. I’ve never been more optimistic about US energy policy.
