Edited version of the presentation by John Doerr and his reasoning for encouraging his partners at Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers to support green technologies such as algae based bio-diesel.
At the end of the Kleiner Perkins partner's presentation at TED, about the perils of climate change, he chokes up.
"I don't think we're going to make it," John Doerr proclaims, in an emotional talk about climate change and investment. Spurred on by his daughter, who demanded he fix the mess the world is heading for, he and his partners. This clip emphasizes the causes for unenthusiastic consumer response to climate change. We all know the broad consequences of the issue, but we do not know our own individual contributions. Perhaps some 'cool' statistics about individual consumption would be effective to supplement Doerr's point here. John Doerr, Silicon Valley's legendary moneyman, is afraid of eco-apocalypse. After building his reputation (and a considerable fortune) investing in high-tech successes, he's turning his focus toward green technologies, and hoping it isn't too late.
