No doubt Dave has enough $$$ to coast in style for the rest of his life, and probably 42 lifetimes beyond that. And it's a sorta nice gesture to support an organization that's trying to put a stop to global warming. But that's like putting a penny on the tracks of a downhill runaway train that hasn't got the ghost of a chance of stopping until it smashes to flinders at the bottom of the slope. So, yeh, nice try Dave, he's gonna save us all...

He sold off his airplane collection a couple years back, didn't make anywhere near as much press.

What next? Most of his real estate holdings?

Bless ol' Dave, Floyd fans made him rich. Who would have guessed when it was just starting out half a century ago.

We need a little entertainment here, dig some live Floyd. I think this song's appropriate:

She will take it back, someday.
