The Ever-Controversial Elon Musk

This from long-time EV advocate Zan Dubin-Scott (pictured):

Hitching a ride to the near future, where one day soon all our trucks will be electric, like this (prototype) Tesla semi cab. Heavy-duty vehicles account for 10% of on-road vehicles but pump out 30% of transportation greenhouse gas emissions and nearly 60% of particulate matter, the fine particles that can cause heart disease and other deadly illnesses. S’why I can’t hate Elon. Tesla leads this sector.
Interesting point on Elon Musk–and a great number of people feel this way.
It’s just such a shame that the world’s (former) wealthiest person had to turn out to be a complete ass****.
$200+ billion could have gone a long way towards climate change mitigation, tackling homelessness, feeding the world’s children, fighting pandemics, you name it.
But no, it needed to be spent in an effort to re-elect a sociopath as president of the United States.
