No one person solves climate change. Climate change is solved by multiple industries 100000s of researchers, engineers, business people and politicians all working on different aspects. Giving the credit to one person (who has yet to do anything is beyond delusional).
Dislike Musk if you want, but Tesla clearly was successful in convincing the world EV were better and that increase the speed of transition to EVs. That is likely more then the waste majority of people ever did for reducing CO2.
> Also Musk will not make much money from SpaceX because like everything he's involved in the margins are terrible (molecules and atoms don't make money).
SpaceX is making amazing margin on rocket launches. They want make much money from launch because its a pretty small market.
We don't yet know anything about margins for Starlink, but your claim that it won make much money is quite bold and against most analyst opinion.
> His net worth has balooned because of his ability to sell an ever improving vision of the future and constantly moving the goalposts, but solving climate change is becoming a crowded trade socially speaking.
Tesla stock isn't where it is because they are 'solving climate change' but because how large the company is, how fast they are growing, what their automotive margin are and the many future prospects they have.
