The $10 B Bezos’ Earth Fund is Good but Amazon Can Do Better – This Week in Sustainability

Description

This week Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon, the giant on-line retailer, announced he would use $10 billion of his $127 billion net worth to fund the Bezos Earth Fund with the promise of helping to resolve the global climate crisis.

The Fund, its a good thing, but in an ideally sustainable world Amazon might not exist, and if it did, it would look quite different.

But barring that alternative universe, there are many, and many more powerful things Mr. Bezos can do for the climate in addition to the Bezos Earth Fund.
