I don't have problems with people advocating reducing consumption to reduce the impact on the planet. Personally I think it's about as effective as telling people to not watch porn but you do you and advocate away. It's harml

Ford first invested $500 million in Rivian in 2019. At the time they also announced that they'll be using Rivian's skateboard platform for Ford's cars. Later on that has been scrapped. So why do they continue investing? I don
