Bill Gates Warns Against Denying Climate Change (usatoday.com)
Reader JoshTops shares a USA Today report: Bill Gates warned against denying climate change and pushed for more innovation in clean energy, during an event Friday at Columbia University in New York. The billionaire philanthropist and Microsoft co-founder joined friend and fellow billionaire Warren Buffett for a question-and-answer session with students. "Certain topics are so complicated like climate change that to really get a broad understanding is a bit difficult and particularly when people take that complexity and create uncertainty about it," Gates said. The planet needs to find reliable, cheap and clean energy, "the innovations there will be profound," Gates said. In December, Gates announced that he and a group of investors would invest more than $1 billion in Breakthrough Energy Ventures, a fund that aims to finance the development of affordable energy that will reduce global greenhouse-gas emissions.

Actually, the Left has being using "alternative facts" for well over a century. Notice the calls for everything to be subjective so everyone has their own set of facts and nothing is objective.
Look at the left allowing me to "self-identify" as a black, lesbian hispanic, caucasian, transgender male. The "facts" don't matter, everything is subjectively relative.
Just as these two posts above try to spin the "alternative facts" as some type of creation that it is not.
