💯 agree with @VP that investments today "have the potential to turn the challenges we face into great opportunities that will have generational and global impact." Leveraging #biotech for ag empowers #Africans, creates highly skilled #Jobs, and fosters agricultural independence.
Tune in as I convene African, American, and global business and philanthropic leaders in Zambia to discuss digital inclusion on the continent of Africa and public and private sector investments. x.com/i/broadcasts/1gqxvyYQO…

Proud to be part of the $7 billion @VP @KamalaHarris secured with our expanded commitment to build custom biofertilizers for #African soils with #African partners. Fertilizer is the foundation of modern ag. Producing it differently - with #biotech - is #affordable & #sustainable.
Addressing the climate crisis is a global challenge.
I am proud to have secured $7 billion in private sector commitments that will support climate resilience, adaptation, and mitigation across the continent of Africa.

As @VP @KamalaHarris & @WhiteHouse note, smart #agriculture can help solve the #ClimateCrisis. We're partnering with #Africa to make #fertilizer #sustainable with #biotech: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room…. Fertilizer feeds billions. We can & must remove #FossilFuels from its production.
