I tend to agree with you. Whilst Musk is upfront with his political position, you know where you stand with him. I prefer that to the more insidious infiltration and undermining and lobbying of eg Cop28 by the big oil companies and oil producing nations who are protecting their income streams at the expense of the planet, whilst hiding behind a façade of greening and cleaning the environment credentials. Knowing all of this we still continue to buy oil based products and put petrol in our tanks despite the known environmental damage we are causing.
