Ignore the fact that Tesla are involved. I’m quite excited for this era of energy storage that we’re entering.
I’m not sure if any of you are/were anime fans, but do you Vash Stampede and Trigun? There were a bunch of giant sand batteries in there, that always stuck in my head.
Obviously, things didn’t work out great for them, but a clean future requires clean storage and clean generation and the first step is storage for everyone.
I actually agree with you. But, take a step back and join me in my utopia dreamland, where politicians are accountable to their constituents. I think in that world, governments absolutely have a responsibility to pass legislation that benefits everyone in the long-term, but just corporations.
I’m not suggesting that we as individuals and certainly not corporations are absolved of responsibility, but I am saying that just like tax loopholes, while there’s room for people to not do the right thing, they absolutely will go for the cheapest wrong thing they can find.
In the past, “accountability” also involved pitchforks and torches, and then a long time in the stocks for the guilty party.
Ah, the good old days.
