It was always a scam. Promoted by people like him to take money from people like you as you pay the taxes used to deliver grants to billionaire corporations for "green energy" projects.

Yeah instead giving it all to billionaire corporations who pump fossil fuels.
It's because of the data canters and the billions of gallons of water they use, plus the ridiculous amount of electricity.

Probably got some different ideas after visiting Epstein's Island

Why did he pretend it was mankind's greatest imminent peril for so long? And why did he change his mind?
Self-censorship due to the Trump administration going after anyone that contradicts the fossil fuel industry's narrative.

I mean if you want to know what's up, then you can at least bother to read the man's own explanation[www.gatesnotes.com].

In summary, he still cares about climate change, but he does not think it is going to destroy humanity in the next ten or so years and thinks there are other priorities that need to be addressed. Priorities that reduce the immediate harm of global warming to people's lives by making developing nations more capable of surviving the consequences of it, and necessitate an increase in carbon emissions because we are not ready to fully cut them out yet even doing as much as we can, and that the existing targets are unrealistic.

There is a tremendous difference between not caring about climate change and saying we need to approach our energy allocation wisely, with due consideration to multiple different human welfare and pragmatic factors.

“Climate change, disease, and poverty are all major problems,” Gates wrote.

“Although climate change will have serious consequences – particularly for people in the poorest countries – it will not lead to humanity’s demise,” Gates wrote. “

Doesnt care sounds different.

1. He never carred to begin with.
2. It's not generating enough profits.

This is most likely the reason. The data centers being built will require increasing the generation of electricity by 50%, or maybe even more, and you won't be able to do that with "green" energy.

Just how much processing power is really needed?
I remember the days when people would knock door to door for survey answers.
