The world’s food crisis can be solved by donating only a small portion of the wealth of super-rich people like Elon Musk. David Bijli, director of the United Nations World Food Program (WFP), called on them to come forward in this regard.
This time, Tesla CEO Elon Musk challenged to prove the truth of that claim of Bijli. He has announced on Twitter that he will raise that amount of money by selling the shares immediately if he can prove his claim the challenge.
In a tweet, Musk asked the World Food Program (WFP) for an explanation of how the $ 600 million would resolve the global food crisis. The billionaire said that if the explanation was realistic, Tesla would immediately sell $600 million worth of shares and raise the money.
Elon Musk wrote on Twitter, “If the WFP can explain in this Twitter thread exactly how the $ 600 million will meet the world’s food crisis, I will pay for that by selling Tesla shares right now.”
In another tweet, Musk said that transparency must be maintained so that everyone can see it.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Elon Musk’s current net worth is $ 31.1 trillion. If he sells 2% of his assets at the current price, he will get more than $ 600 million.
Meanwhile, Amazon co-founder Jeff Bezos was named in the WFP director’s challenge, but he did not make any comment.
