Musk’s politics hadn’t seeped into Tesla. Then he axed its …

The Washington Post:  The Tesla CEO was once an outspoken voice on climate change. But Musk now argues many risks are overstated. …

Excerpt: Once one of the most vocal American executives on the dangers of climate change, Musk called for a ‘popular uprising’ against the fossil fuel industry in a 2016 film. At Tesla, every internal power point presentation had to include figures from former vice president Al Gore’s documentary ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ citing rising carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, a reminder of the company’s mission. But the paragraph about global warming is no longer required in Tesla’s power point decks and climate change has plummeted on Musk’s list of priorities: In an August live stream on X, he told Trump ‘we don’t need to rush’ to solve the climate crisis.”

Climate Depot’s Morano: “First, RFK Jr. and now Elon Musk! The world has lost two of the most prominent climate activists post-COVID lockdowns. We welcome Elon Musk into the climate red pill group.” See: RFK Jr. red-pilled on climate agenda?! RFK Jr. declares climate ‘being exploited by the WEF & Bill Gates’ in ‘the same way that COVID was exploited’ – ‘Top-down totalitarian controls on society’
