Has Bill Gates had a change of heart on climate change? In this episode of Created to Reign , Dr. David Legates explores the tech billionaire’s surprising “strategic pivot” — from alarmist rhetoric to emphasizing poverty reduction, innovation, and human welfare. Drawing on Gates’ own words and reactions from figures like Michael Mann and The Wall Street Journal , Dr. Legates asks: has Gates truly joined the ranks of climate realists, or is this just a softer shade of alarmism? Tune in for a thoughtful look at shifting narratives and what they mean for the future of the climate debate.
