Bill Gates and European Commission launch €100 million clean energy fund
Speaking at the launch in Brussels, Belgium, on 17 October, Gates said that science and innovation hold the key to tackling climate change.
‘My history at Microsoft made me an optimist, a believer in backing scientists to solve very tough problems,’ he said. ‘And here in Europe there’s an incredible number of scientists who’ve got good ideas.’
The €100 million Breakthrough Energy Europe fund combines €50 million of public funding from the EU and €50 million in long-term risk capital from Breakthrough Energy Ventures, the Gates-led fund for energy startups. It will focus on technologies in the areas of electricity, transport, agriculture, manufacturing and buildings that reduce emissions by at least half a gigaton a year, as well as increase energy efficiency.
Carlos Moedas, the EU’s Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation, said: ‘We are delivering on our commitment to stimulate public-private cooperation in financing clean energy innovation. Together, we are opening up a new way of working for the future, one that will really make a difference.’
Europe’s leadership in addressing the challenge of climate change is ‘more important today than ever,’ said Gates, who added that innovation was the answer to the question of how to double the amount of energy used over the next 50 years, while also getting emissions down to zero.
When the Breakthrough Energy Europe team is up and running in 2019, they will sit down with universities and institutions across the continent to identify which research is ready to be turned into products. The aim is to invest the €100 million over the next two years and then potentially scale up the fund if it is successful.

'Together, we are opening up a new way of working for the future, one that will really make a difference.'
Hard-hitting
The fund’s launch comes in the wake of a hard-hitting report from the UN’s International Panel on Climate Change which said that ‘unprecedented’ changes would be needed in all aspects of society to limit global warming to 1.5˚C above pre-industrial levels.
In particular, the report said this would mean ‘rapid and far-reaching transitions in energy, land, urban and infrastructure (including transport and buildings), and industrial systems’.
Maroš Šefčovič, the European Commission’s Vice President for Energy Union, said: ‘The IPCC (said) that every bit of warming matters and urgent action is needed to limit global temperature rise. Let’s collectively act as clean energy innovation warriors to inspire others.’
Scientists estimate that the world has already warmed by 1˚C since pre-industrial times as a result of human activities, and models show that, without action to cut emissions, global warming could exceed a catastrophic 4˚C by the end of this century.
The fund forms part of the EU’s commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union by at least 40% from 1990 levels by 2030. The public-private financing model is a pilot project that could in the future be replicated in areas other than clean energy.
In 2015, representatives from 195 countries met in Paris, France, and signed a binding agreement to limit global warming to well below 2 ˚C, and to aim for 1.5 ˚C. World leaders are due to meet again in December in Katowice, Poland, to look at progress towards this goal.
The European Commission is also working on a proposal to decarbonise the European economy by 2050, which will be published in November and will feed into December’s discussions in Poland.

I am again saying - NETZERO is a big scam.
Humans of Universe ... Wake up and see through the deep smoke of blatant lies...
Watch the following video and you will understand the issue...
here we go...
globalists - beware -
people are waking up from slumber.
There is no place of wokism in the modern society... or else you will have to pay a very high price.
Don't believe everything that you are told by the mainstream media.
See through the ugly plan of a few warmongers.
Use the grey cells of your brain.
Don't make your head just a container of info
Analyse the vibe and the frequency that the #UNIVERSE is sending you incessantly.
Feel the power of your #thirdeye
The background of World War III - the NATO expansion after the fallout of the Ukrainian top boss who was pro-Russian during 2013-14 and the ugly power game of the USA politicians at that time to expand NATO mainly to sabotage the peaceful approach for which Gorbachov sir agreed - and it created the background of the WWIII
It was Russia who objected to this kind of aggressive expansion of NATO - the power play to control the Black Sea to downplay Russia - and the wilful blindness of the global leaders to such aggressive behavior of the US politicians led to ultimate mistrust - the war after the cold war era between USA and Russia.
Today whatever we are seeing - the seed was sown around 2013 with the toppling of the pro-Russian Ukraine boss.

Wake up and kiss the #Truth
Don't put on a blinker around your eyes...
Seek and disseminate only TRUTH...
Let me add here a few words from JFK's speech...
We must “avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to a choice of either a humiliating defeat or nuclear war,” as Kennedy phrased it in the speech.
It's very important not to pull a nuclear power to an war and then let them face an humiliating defeat - because in that case we will simply head for a nuclear annihilation in which no body would survive.
So... Humans of Universe... Wake Up
" Who bears responsibility for the humanitarian disaster in Ukraine, for the death of thousands of Ukrainians, both civilians and soldiers, and for the impressment of Ukrainian civilians into the military? Who bears responsibility for the destruction of Ukrainian homes and businesses, and for the refugee crisis that is now adding to the one from the Middle East? Who bears responsibility for the deaths of thousands of young men serving in the Russian military, most of whom surely believe, like their Ukrainian counterparts, that they are fighting to protect their nation and their families? Who bears responsibility for the ongoing harm being inflicted on the economies and citizens of Europe and the United States? Who will bear responsibility if disruptions in farming lead to famine in Africa, a continent that depends heavily on the importation of grain from Ukraine and Russia? And finally, who will bear responsibility if the war in Ukraine escalates to a nuclear exchange, and then becomes a full-scale nuclear war?
How one judges the relative responsibilities of Moscow, Washington, and the various European capitals will depend on how one weighs particular historical events, the actions of the individuals involved, and the relative stress one places on proximal and distal causation. Nonetheless, I will venture the judgement that, when all is taken into account, primary responsibility lies with the West, in particular with the United States. I know of no entirely satisfactory way to argue this point; there is no validated methodology for apportioning blame among a range of actors, all of whom have at least some agency, some freedom of choice. But I believe we can gain insight by constructing a counterfactual history, which asks: Where would we be now had the United States acted differently? This is a game of “what if”—and the projections it generates can never be proven or disproven. But this counterfactual sits well with the history of the last 30 years and, to my mind, is both revealing and persuasive.
Had the United States not pushed NATO to the border of Russia; not deployed nuclear-capable missile launch systems in Romania and planned them for Poland and perhaps elsewhere as well; not contributed to the overthrow of the democratically elected Ukrainian government in 2014; not abrogated the ABM treaty and then the intermediate-range nuclear missile treaty, and then disregarded Russian attempts to negotiate a bilateral moratorium on deployments; not conducted live-fire exercises with rockets in Estonia to practise striking targets inside Russia; not coordinated a massive 32-nation military training exercise near Russian territory; not intertwined the U.S. military with that of Ukraine; etc. etc. etc.— Had the United States and its NATO allies not done these tings, the war in Ukraine would not have taken place.
There will be no winner or looser in a nuclear war - the human race will be in danger - it will be fatal for everybody in this Universe..."
Maybe this will be an useful book for awakening...

Here is a gist of Minsk agreement between Russia and Ukraine signed in 2014-15
The Minsk agreements, actually consisting of two agreements (Minsk I and Minsk II) signed in 2015, aimed to end the war in Ukraine's Donbas region. Here are the key points:
Security:
Immediate and complete ceasefire by both sides.
Withdrawal of heavy weapons from the front lines.
Monitoring of the ceasefire and withdrawal by the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE).
Political:
Dialogue on establishing temporary self-government for certain areas of Donetsk and Luhansk within Ukraine, with specific details to be laid out in Ukrainian law.
Amnesty for combatants.
Release of prisoners of war.
Humanitarian:
Improved humanitarian access to the region.
Exchange of hostages.
Resumption of social and economic ties, including restoring pension payments.
Crucially: Ukraine would regain control of its border with Russia only after local elections were held in Donetsk and Luhansk according to Ukrainian law.
However, disagreements arose over the sequencing of these steps. Ukraine wanted the border returned first, while Russia pushed for elections and autonomy first. This lack of consensus plagued the Minsk agreements and ultimately led to their failure to bring lasting peace.
The peace is all we need because the pain of a soldier can only be felt by the close relatives and friends...

The last one is not only the most important of the five mantras but also it is the crux of the whole of the scripture of ‘Aitreya Brahman’. A loose transliteration is given below.

Life is like a bicycle

Life is like a stream.
The moment the flow of the stream is lost, all sorts of fungi pollute the water - and the water becomes dirty and ceases to be a potable one.
So, we have to keep moving all throughout our lives - physically - spiritually - and metamorphically - we must not stop the movement - because the
