The tv show Ted Lasso introduced me the phrase: "It's the hope that kills you." And in the show they rag on it, because people take it to mean "be hopeless". While I would never want people to be hopeless, I think that it is irresponsible to be hopeful without much more concrete plans to actually get things moving. Climate Change is a tragedy of the commons, and nothing that Elon is working on fixes that. It still needs action as a tragedy of the commons, and Elon (and Tesla) can't fix that. We need other actions, and it's not enough for people to sit by and do nothing. It's not even enough to buy an electric car. We need people to change the ways in which they consume, and more than that we need them to vote to force companies to change the ways in which companies consume.
