John Liu at COP29: What’s the Point of Being Billionaire or Trillionaire, How Does that Help Anyone?

EXCERPT:

LIU: “If I were a very clever person who wanted to become a billionaire or a trillionaire, and I had gathered all this stuff to myself, what's the point of that? How does that help anyone? And I'm going to die, and I don't think I win anything if I die with more stuff than anybody else. So we need to think about this as a species. We need to have collective intelligence about what's going on.”
