In the book "Superfreakenomics", IV is shown to be actively developing insanely simple/improbable solutions for hurricanes (by cycling warmer ocean water with cooler water using tires and concrete), global warming (by pumping sulphur into the statosphere), and malaria (with female mosquito detecting lasers). The book protrayed them as developing prototypes for those "inventions", so patents seem fitting.
