> ... most climatologists think that humanity should eventually stop contributing carbon into the atmosphere on net. Yes, that makes sense. > It's unlikely that we'll completely delete all car dependency any time soon. That is not the goal I am advocating. I would like more transit and less people driving alone in SUVs and living in overly large single family homes. > Will every person living in a rural area have a personal train? No, that would not make any sense. > Electric vehicles already contribute less carbon over their lifetimes than gas Yes, but expanding highways and stroads is not carbon neutral. Heating individual homes is not carbon neutral. Mining lithium is not carbon neutral and pollutes the environment. His ideas around hyper loops and Tesla tunnels under Las Vegas make no sense when we already have trains. > I also don't see why caring about climate change would cause me to care about endangered turtles in Texas Yeah that is my point. There is a link to climate change and habitat destruction. Elon moves to Texas and supports conservatives that do not care about climate change at all. They profess that climate change is not happening at all. Elon recently advocated more natural gas and oil production and drilling. It is all incoherent. I am not saying all of his ideas are bad, but I am saying he does not seem to make coherent sense.
