More Trump/Musk
Skipping for a moment Trump's ignorant climate comment, Musk said the only reason to quit fossil fuels is their supply is finite. This is stupid on two levels.
First, we'll never run out of fossil fuels. There's too much of them.
Second, the problem with them isn't running out, it's running out of the ability of the environment to absorb the consequences of burning them.
