People need to look at the larger picture. Decades ago it became clear it was urgent for the human race to move off of fossil fuels, and this included automobiles. The problem was the technology was not at all ready, especially the batteries. So Musk went to work developing li-ion battery cars that would be up to the job, and cheap enough to buy. Over the years Tesla has made great progress, and so did many other companies, and in addition many governments have been pushing ev's. As a consequence the ev industry is taking off, and that will do an enormous amount to help save the climate. Why do so many people ignore all this and focus on criticizing Tesla? Some of them are climate change deniers, or people invested in the fossil fuel industry. Some are shorters who just want to make money. And some are haters who are not happy unless they are busy hating something, and happened to have picked Tesla and Musk. So yes, there are things Tesla does wrong. But everyone needs to be focusing on the larger picture, and the role that Tesla is playing in it.
