John Doerr Goes Green; Disney Enters the Metaverse; Elon Musk Makes a Sale

Legendary internet investor John Doerr is making a big bet on green tech. In discussing his new book, “Speed and Scale,” Doerr explains his plan to achieve global net zero emissions by 2050. As a venture capitalist, his eye is on the bottom line, but Doerr shares a vision that stretches far beyond his portfolio returns. Disney has big plans for its own metaverse and Elon Musk has sold $5 billion in Tesla stock. Plus, Andrew is back from his two-day virtual DealBook Conference, and he’s digesting comments from GM’s Mary Barra, Citadel’s Ken Griffin, and others. On this Veterans Day, we thank all current and former military for their service to the United States. In this episode: John Doerr, @johndoerr Joe Kernen, @JoeSquawk Becky Quick, @BeckyQuick Andrew Ross Sorkin, @andrewrsorkin Katie Kramer, @Kramer_Katie
