Bill Gates on Energy at TED


For a person who produces conferences for a living (Hello Me!) the annual TED conference is the Superbowl of the conference industry. If you are not familar with TED here is a description lifted from their website:

Each year, the world's leading thinkers and doers gather in for an event many describe as the highlight of their year. Attendees have called it "The ultimate brain spa," "Davos for optimists" and "A four-day journey into the future, in the company of those creating it."

Less than two weeks ago Bill Gates gave a very thought provoking speech on energy at the 2010 TED conference. The people at TED have since uploaded video of Mr. Gate's speech that some are calling the "Most Important Climate Speech of the Year". Watch the speech below to come to your own conclusion. Anybody know how I could convince Bill Gates to come on board the 2010 Sustainable Operations Summit?
