Musk Believes in Global Warming. Trump Doesn’t. Will That Change?
(www.nytimes.com)
Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.
As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades:
How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world:
Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:
Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
Yeah, I get you
I just didn't want to give him the credit, that he is the actual genius behind the companies, like he always wants to present himself
Because every time he talks about something, I at least know something about (like self-driving cars), I know, he is just talking shit and absolutely doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about.
So the sentence, that he, like he himself, slaps together cars, was the drop that brought me to that answer.
Wasn't really against you, I just don't want to promote his wanted image of a genius inventor
Well, he is just deeply narcissistic and looks for validation, like you say.
I don't know, if there will ever be a moment, that he thinks he's successful enough to earn love.
But he is also an adult. And even though he has his emotional problems, he is a very shitty parent to his trans child. And just forwarding all the hate, because he can't handle his feelings isn't acceptable.
He still has a shitload of money and just with that enough power to move things.
Which is dangerous, when he can influence geo politics that much - see StarLink in war or near war scenarios, and just recently the US election.
I actually would really like to know, why he is feeling so insecure and needs all this validation, and with what success he would say, that's it, now I'm fine.
