Jeff Bezos launched his Bezos Earth Fund in 2020 , committing $10 billion to fight climate change and protect nature.

The fund has given $2 billion in grants to a wide array of projects since its inception.

Trump is expected to introduce a landslide of new policies that would slow the transition to cleaner energy needed to keep climate disasters growing worse.
