Jeff Bezos emphasizes that while many aspects of life have improved over the last 50 years, the natural environment has deteriorated due to pollution and depletion. He acknowledges Amazon’s role in climate change, with the company emitting over 70 million metric tons of carbon dioxide in 2022 but aims for net-zero emissions by 2040. Bezos also points to his investment in Blue Origin as a potential solution, suggesting that space exploration could provide infinite resources. He contrasts his vision of supporting life on Earth with Elon Musk’s goal of making humanity multidimensional, asserting, “There is no plan B. We have to save Earth.”
