I hope that he is right that the Paris Accord and the agreements last year will be seen as a turning point. As always, I am amazed with his excitement when speaking of technology as a solution.

It will be interesting to see what platform he creates to continue advocating on climate change and working on peace and reconciliation. He does go into that with incredible accomplishments in both areas.
