Microsoft co-founder, and Think Billions VBF, Bill Gates believes he has a solution.
The billionaire software guru says he is in discussions with China to jointly develop a new kind of nuclear reactor.
Yes, you read that correctly. Bill Gates. China. Communists. Nuclear Energy.
At a talk this week at China's Ministry of Science & Technology, Gates said: "The idea is to be very low cost, very safe and generate very little waste."
Gates backs Washington-based TerraPower, which is developing a nuclear reactor that can run on depleted uranium. He says he is thinking about tossing perhaps as much as a billion dollars into R&D over the next couple of years.
Bill Gates Likes (+1) Communists.
We know that China Likes (+1) Bill Gates. Since the country has been using Microsoft software largely on a freeware basis over many, many years.
